vfs: move ima_file_free before releasing the file
ima_file_free(), called on __fput(), currently flags files that have changed, so that the file is re-measured. For appraising a files's integrity, the file's hash must be re-calculated and stored in the 'security.ima' xattr to reflect any changes. This patch moves the ima_file_free() call to before releasing the file in preparation of ima-appraisal measuring the file and updating the 'security.ima' xattr.
