security: Handle dentries without inode in security_path_post_mknod() (2024-04-02 10:01:19 +0200)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Here is a simple follow-up patch for the patch set to move IMA and EVM to
the LSM infrastructure.

It fixes a kernel panic in the newly introduced function
security_path_post_mknod(), when trying to check if an inode is private.
The panic occurs because not all dentries have an inode attached to them.

I'm sending this PR as IMA/EVM co-maintainer, even if the patch also
touches the LSM infrastructure itself (it is acked by Paul).

Ops, there is a spurious 'i' in the referenced commit ID, in the commit
message. Please discard, will send a new pull request shortly.
