[PATCH v4 33/54] selinuxfs: don't stash the dentry of /policy_capabilities

[Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>]

Don't bother to store the dentry of /policy_capabilities - it belongs
to invariant part of tree and we only use it to populate that directory,
so there's no reason to keep it around afterwards.

Same situation as with /avc, /ss, etc.  There are two directories that
get replaced on policy load - /class and /booleans.  These we need to
stash (and update the pointers on policy reload); /policy_capabilities
is not in the same boat.
