security: Fix ret values doc for security_inode_init_security()
Commit 6bcdfd2cac55 ("security: Allow all LSMs to provide xattrs for
inode_init_security hook") unified the !initxattrs and initxattrs cases. By
doing that, security_inode_init_security() cannot return -EOPNOTSUPP
anymore, as it is always replaced with zero at the end of the function.
Also, mentioning -ENOMEM as the only possible error is not correct. For
example, evm_inode_init_security() could return -ENOKEY.
Fix these issues in the documentation of security_inode_init_security().
Fixes: 6bcdfd2cac55 ("security: Allow all LSMs to provide xattrs for inode_init_security hook")
