LSM: fix documentation for the socket_post_create hook
This patch slightly fixes the documentation for the socket_post_create hook. The documentation states that i_security field is accessible through inode field of socket structure (i.e., 'sock->inode->i_security'). There is no inode field in the socket structure. The i_security field is accessible through SOCK_INODE macro. The patch updates the documentation to reflect this.
