After commit c89128a00838 ("ext4: handle errors on ext4_commit_super"), 'ret' may
be set to 0 before calling ext4_fill_flex_info(), if ext4_fill_flex_info() fails
ext4_mount() doesn't return error code, it makes 'root' is null which causes
crash in legacy_get_tree().
Fixes: c89128a00838 ("ext4: handle errors on ext4_commit_super")
