[PATCH] SELinux: fix hard link count for selinuxfs root directory

A further fix is needed for selinuxfs link count management, to ensure that
the count is correct for the parent directory when a subdirectory is
created.  This is only required for the root directory currently, but the
code has been updated for the general case.
