selinux: fix residual uses of current_security() for the SELinux blob
We need to use selinux_cred() to fetch the SELinux cred blob instead of directly using current->security or current_security(). There were a couple of lingering uses of current_security() in the SELinux code that were apparently missed during the earlier conversions. IIUC, this would only manifest as a bug if multiple security modules including SELinux are enabled and SELinux is not first in the lsm order. After this change, there appear to be no other users of current_security() in-tree; perhaps we should remove it altogether.
