Hopefully less screwed version.  But as I've said I am not really
familiar with the code and do not feel competent to change it so please
be very careful here. I've moved the shrinker registration to
alloc_super which turned out to be simpler.

Tetsuo has properly pointed out that the real reason is that fault
injection has caused register_shrinker to fail and the error path is not
handled in sget_userns.

Fix the issue by moving the shrinker registration up when the superblock
is allocated and fail early even before we try to register the superblock.
This should be safe wrt. parallel shrinker invocation as we are holding
s_umount lock which blocks shrinker invocation.

The issue is very unlikely to trigger in the production because small
allocations do not fail usually.
