[PATCH 21/19] LSM: Cleanup and fixes from Tetsuo Handa

lsm_early_cred()/lsm_early_task() are called from only __init functions.

lsm_cred_alloc()/lsm_file_alloc() are called from only security/security.c .

lsm_early_inode() should be avoided because it is not appropriate to
call panic() when lsm_early_inode() is called after __init phase.

Since all free hooks are called when one of init hooks failed, each
free hook needs to check whether init hook was called.

The original changes are from Tetsuo Handa. I have made minor
changes in some places, but this is mostly his code.
