VFS: Reorder vfs_getxattr to avoid unnecessary calls to the LSM

Originally vfs_getxattr would pull the security xattr variable using
the inode getxattr handle and then proceed to clobber it with a subsequent call
to the LSM.

This patch reorders the two operations such that when the xattr requested is
in the security namespace it first attempts to grab the value from the LSM
directly.

If it fails to obtain the value because there is no module present or the
module does not support the operation it will fall back to using the inode
getxattr operation.

In the event that both are inaccessible it returns EOPNOTSUPP.
