    fs: fix UAF/GPF bug in nilfs_mdt_destroy

    In alloc_inode, inode_init_always() could return -ENOMEM if
    security_inode_alloc() fails, which causes inode->i_private
    uninitialized. Then nilfs_is_metadata_file_inode() returns
    true and nilfs_free_inode() wrongly calls nilfs_mdt_destroy(),
    which frees the uninitialized inode->i_private
    and leads to crashes(e.g., UAF/GPF).

    Fix this by moving security_inode_alloc just prior to
    this_cpu_inc(nr_inodes)
