UPSTREAM: security: add inode_init_security_anon() LSM hook
This change adds a new LSM hook, inode_init_security_anon(), that will be used while creating secure anonymous inodes. The hook allows/denies its creation and assigns a security context to the inode. The new hook accepts an optional context_inode parameter that callers can use to provide additional contextual information to security modules for granting/denying permission to create an anon-inode of the same type. This context_inode's security_context can also be used to initialize the newly created anon-inode's security_context.
