[PATCH 1/4] fuse: Fix crash in fuse_dentry_automount() error path

If fuse_fill_super_submount() returns an error, the error path
triggers a crash:

[ 26.206673] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000
[...]
[ 26.226362] RIP: 0010:__list_del_entry_valid+0x25/0x90
[...]
[ 26.247938] Call Trace:
[ 26.248300] fuse_mount_remove+0x2c/0x70 [fuse]
[ 26.248892] virtio_kill_sb+0x22/0x160 [virtiofs]
[ 26.249487] deactivate_locked_super+0x36/0xa0
[ 26.250077] fuse_dentry_automount+0x178/0x1a0 [fuse]

The crash happens because fuse_mount_remove() assumes that the FUSE
mount was already added to list under the FUSE connection, but this
only done after fuse_fill_super_submount() has returned success.

This means that until fuse_fill_super_submount() has returned success,
the FUSE mount isn't actually owned by the superblock. We should thus
reclaim ownership by clearing sb->s_fs_info, which will skip the call
to fuse_mount_remove(), and perform rollback, like virtio_fs_get_tree()
already does for the root sb.
