Use the new security_kernfs_init_security() hook to allow LSMs to
possibly assign a non-default security context to a newly created kernfs
node based on the attributes of the new node and also its parent node.

This fixes an issue with cgroupfs under SELinux, where newly created
cgroup subdirectories/files would not inherit its parent's context if
it had been set explicitly to a non-default value (other than the genfs
context specified by the policy). This can be reproduced as follows (on
Fedora/RHEL):

    # mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/unified/test
    # # Need permissive to change the label under Fedora policy:
    # setenforce 0
    # chcon -t container_file_t /sys/fs/cgroup/unified/test
    # ls -lZ /sys/fs/cgroup/unified
    total 0

    # mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/unified/test/subdir

Actual result:

    # ls -ldZ /sys/fs/cgroup/unified/test/subdir
    drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root system_u:object_r:cgroup_t:s0 0 Jan 29 03:15 /sys/fs/cgroup/unified/test/subdir

Expected result:

    # ls -ldZ /sys/fs/cgroup/unified/test/subdir
    drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root unconfined_u:object_r:container_file_t:s0 0 Jan 29 03:15 /sys/fs/cgroup/unified/test/subdir
