mainline inclusion from mainline-v6.1-rc1 commit 2e488f13755ffbb60f307e991b27024716a33b29 category: bugfix bugzilla: 187543, https://gitee.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/I5NZ98 CVE: CVE-2022-2978
-------------------------------
In alloc_inode, inode_init_always() could return -ENOMEM if security_inode_alloc() fails, which causes inode->i_private uninitialized. Then nilfs_is_metadata_file_inode() returns true and nilfs_free_inode() wrongly calls nilfs_mdt_destroy(), which frees the uninitialized inode->i_private and leads to crashes(e.g., UAF/GPF).
Fix this by moving security_inode_alloc just prior to this_cpu_inc(nr_inodes)
