[PATCH v2 48/50] convert securityfs

securityfs uses simple_recursive_removal(), but does not bother to mark
dentries persistent. This is the only place where it still happens; get
rid of that irregularity.
* use simple_{start,done}_creating() and d_make_persitent(); kill_litter_super()
use was already gone, since we empty the filesystem instance before it gets
shut down.
