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.
