[RESEND RFC PATCH v2 02/14] vfs: Remove explicit devcgroup_inode calls

[Michael Weiß]

Since the new lsm-based cgroup device access control is settled,
the explicit calls to devcgroup_inode_permission and
devcgroup_inode_mknod in fs/namei.c are redundant and can safely
be dropped. The corresponding security_inode_permission and
security_inode_mknod hooks are taking over.
