audit_get_nd(): don't unlock parent too early
[ Upstream commit 69924b89687a2923e88cc42144aea27868913d0e ] if the child has been negative and just went positive under us, we want coherent d_is_positive() and ->d_inode. Don't unlock the parent until we'd done that work... Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
