[PATCH v3] securityfs: fix missing of d_delete() in securityfs_remove()

[alexjlzheng@gmail.com]

From: Jinliang Zheng <alexjlzheng@tencent.com>

Consider the following execution flow:

  Thread 0: securityfs_create_dir("A")
  Thread 1: cd /sys/kernel/security/A           <- we hold 'A'
  Thread 0: securityfs_remove(dentry)           <- 'A' don't go away
  Thread 0: securityfs_create_dir("A")          <- Failed: File exists!

Although the LSM module will not be dynamically added or deleted after
the kernel is started, it may dynamically add or delete pseudo files
for status export or function configuration in userspace according to
different status, which we are not prohibited from doing so.

In addition, securityfs_recursive_remove() avoids this problem by calling
__d_drop() directly. As a non-recursive version, it is somewhat strange
that securityfs_remove() does not clean up the deleted dentry.

Fix this by adding d_delete() in securityfs_remove().
