[apparmor] [PATCH v3 06/15] selinux: Use simple_start_creating() / simple_done_creating()

[NeilBrown]

From: NeilBrown <neil at brown.name>

Instead of explicitly locking the parent and performing a lookup in
selinux, use simple_start_creating(), and then use
simple_done_creating() to unlock.

This extends the region that the directory is locked for, and also
performs a lookup.
The lock extension is of no real consequence.
The lookup uses simple_lookup() and so always succeeds.  Thus when
d_make_persistent() is called the dentry will already be hashed.
d_make_persistent() handles this case.
