[RFC PATCH v2 5/9] fs: add anon_inode_getfile_secure() similar to anon_inode_getfd_secure()

[Paul Moore]

Extending the secure anonymous inode support to other subsystems
requires that we have a secure anon_inode_getfile() variant in
addition to the existing secure anon_inode_getfd() variant.

Thankfully we can reuse the existing __anon_inode_getfile() function
and just wrap it with the proper arguments.

+/**
+ * anon_inode_getfile_secure - Like anon_inode_getfile(), but creates a new
+ *                             !S_PRIVATE anon inode rather than reuse the
+ *                             singleton anon inode and calls the
+ *                             inode_init_security_anon() LSM hook.  This
+ *                             allows for both the inode to have its own
+ *                             security context and for the LSM to enforce
+ *                             policy on the inode's creation.
+ *
+ * @name:    [in]    name of the "class" of the new file
+ * @fops:    [in]    file operations for the new file
+ * @priv:    [in]    private data for the new file (will be file's private_data)
+ * @flags:   [in]    flags
+ * @context_inode:
+ *           [in]    the logical relationship with the new inode (optional)
+ *
+ * The LSM may use @context_inode in inode_init_security_anon(), but a
+ * reference to it is not held.  Returns the newly created file* or an error
+ * pointer.  See the anon_inode_getfile() documentation for more information.
