fs/dcache: move security_d_instantiate() behind attaching dentry to inode
BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1852110 During backport 1e2e547a "do d_instantiate/unlock_new_inode combinations safely", there was a error instantiating sequence of attaching dentry to inode and calling security_d_instantiate(). Before commit ce23e640 "->getxattr(): pass dentry and inode as separate arguments" and b9680917 "security_d_instantiate(): move to the point prior to attaching dentry to inode", security_d_instantiate() should be called beind __d_instantiate(), otherwise it will trigger below problem when CONFIG_SECURITY_SMACK on ext4 was enabled because d_inode(dentry) used by ->getxattr() is NULL before __d_instantiate() instantiate inode.
