None for security_path_chmod(). None for security_path_chown() if we are
allowed to pass "struct vfsmount" to chown_common().

Al, is it OK to pass "struct vfsmount" to chown_common() so that
security_path_chown() is called after mutex_lock()?

[PATCH] LSM: Move security_path_chmod()/security_path_chown() to after mutex_lock().
We should call security_path_chmod()/security_path_chown() after mutex_lock()
in order to avoid races.
