[PATCH v2] fsnotify, lsm: Decouple fsnotify from lsm

[Song Liu <song@kernel.org>]

Currently, fsnotify_open_perm() is called from security_file_open(). This
is not right for CONFIG_SECURITY=n and CONFIG_FSNOTIFY=y case, as
security_file_open() in this combination will be a no-op and not call
fsnotify_open_perm(). Fix this by calling fsnotify_open_perm() directly.

After this, CONFIG_FANOTIFY_ACCESS_PERMISSIONS does not require
CONFIG_SECURITY any more. Remove the dependency in the config.

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-fsdevel/20241011203722.3749850-1-song@kernel.org/

As far as I can tell, it is necessary to back port this to stable. Because
CONFIG_FANOTIFY_ACCESS_PERMISSIONS is the only user of fsnotify_open_perm,
and CONFIG_FANOTIFY_ACCESS_PERMISSIONS depends on CONFIG_SECURITY.
Therefore, the following tags are not necessary. But I include here as
these are discussed in v1.

Fixes: c4ec54b40d33 ("fsnotify: new fsnotify hooks and events types for access decisions")
Depends-on: 36e28c42187c ("fsnotify: split fsnotify_perm() into two hooks")
Depends-on: d9e5d31084b0 ("fsnotify: optionally pass access range in file permission hooks")
