securityfs: securityfs_remove should handle IS_ERR pointers

Browse source 
Both of the securityfs users (TPM and IMA) can call securityfs_remove and pass
an IS_ERR(dentry) in their failure paths.  This patch handles those rather
than panicing when it tries to start deferencing some negative memory.
