While reworking the LSM initialization code the
/proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr handler was inadvertently caught up in the
change and the procfs entry wasn't setup when CONFIG_SECURITY was not
selected at kernel build time.  This patch restores the previous behavior
and ensures that the procfs entry is setup regardless of the
CONFIG_SECURITY state.

Future work will improve upon this, likely by moving the procfs handler
into the mm subsystem, but this patch should resolve the immediate
regression.

LGTM and tested locally confirming it works, thanks so much for the quick
turnaround! Feel free to add:
