[PATCH] debugfs: fix security_locked_down() call for SELinux

Make sure that security_locked_down() is checked last so that a bogus
denial is not reported by SELinux when (ia->ia_valid & (ATTR_MODE |
ATTR_UID | ATTR_GID)) is zero.

Note: this was introduced by commit 5496197f9b08 ("debugfs: Restrict
debugfs when the kernel is locked down"), but it didn't matter at that
time, as the SELinux support came in later.

Fixes: 59438b46471a ("security,lockdown,selinux: implement SELinux lockdown")
