Here's what I'm seeing here:

  sys_mount->path_mount->do_new_mount->vfs_get_tree->ceph_get_tree

ceph_get_tree() fails due to ceph_real_mount() returning an error.  My
understanding is that that, since fc->root is never set, that code path
will never be triggered.  Does that make sense?

An easy way to reproduce is by running fstest ceph/005 with the
'test_dummy_encryption' option.  (I'll probably need to send a patch to
disable this test when this option is present.)

Cheers,
