Subject: mm: shmem.c: Correctly annotate new inodes for lockdep
Directories and inodes don't necessarily need to be in the same lockdep
class. For ex, hugetlbfs splits them out too to prevent false positives
in lockdep. Annotate correctly after new inode creation. If its a
directory inode, it will be put into a different class.
This should fix a lockdep splat reported by syzbot:
