[PATCH] fsnotify, lsm: Separate fsnotify_open_perm() and security_file_open()

[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.

PS: I didn't included a Fixes tag. This issue was probably introduced 15
years ago in [1]. If we want to back port this to stable, we will need
another version for older kernel because of [2].
