In create mode, we expect only REG files. It can happen that we
encountered an error on inode for REG files. We are detecting that
case. In all cases res should be null.

No, it will not trigger for REG files and we do not expect spliced dentry here.

Since we skipped d_lookup() and came here( whether atomic create is
implemented or not, all cases), dentry can have DCACHE_PAR_LOOKUP flag
on it (This flag prevents parallel dentry creation for same file name
in hash, other dentry insert for same file name in hash if came for
allocation would wait until this flag gets cleared on the dentry).
d_splice_alias() awaknes those sleeping on this flag but
d_instantiate() does nothing related to dentry waiters awake/flag
clear etc. It just links inode with dentry. So we need
d_splice_alias() here instead of d_instantiate().

Please note that we are auto detecting the atomic create so even in
normal create case we would avoid lookup first until
fc->no_atomic_create is set. it is after we confirm with lower layers
that atomic create is not implemented, we do not avoid lookups so
would be calling d_instantiate() instead of d_splice_alias();
