NAK. The only cases when sget_fc() returns without having ->s_fs_info
zeroed are when it has successfull grabbed a reference to existing live
superblock or when it has failed. In the former case we proceed straight
to
fsc->root = dget(sb->s_root);
return 0;
and in the latter we bugger off on IS_ERR(sb). No double-free in either
case. Said that, the logics in there (especially around the cleanups
on virtio_fs_fill_super() failures) is bloody convoluted, but sorting
that out would take a lot more RTFS than I'm willing to start right now.
In any case, this patch does not fix any bugs and does not make the
thing easier to follow, so...
