Don't bother to store the dentry of /policy_capabilities - it belongs to invariant part of tree and we only use it to populate that directory, so there's no reason to keep it around afterwards. Same situation as with /avc, /ss, etc. There are two directories that get replaced on policy load - /class and /booleans. These we need to stash (and update the pointers on policy reload); /policy_capabilities is not in the same boat.
