Good point. Patch follows.
I have compile-tested this but nothing more. I'm not even sure how I can
test it as it only affect error paths that are not easy to force.
Thanks,

Subject: [PATCH] NFS: ensure bdi_unregister is called on mount failure.
bdi_unregister is called by nfs_put_super which is only called by
generic_shutdown_super if ->s_root is not NULL. So if we error out
in a circumstance where we called nfs_bdi_register (i.e. server !=
NULL) but have not set s_root, then we need to call bdi_unregister
explicitly in nfs_get_sb and various other *_get_sb() functions.
