Subject: squashfs: fix null-ptr-deref in squashfs_fill_super
Date: Tue, 1 Nov 2022 15:33:43 +0800
When squashfs_read_table() returns an error or `sb->s_magic !=
SQUASHFS_MAGIC`, enters the error branch and calls
msblk->thread_ops->destroy(msblk) to destroy msblk. However,
msblk->thread_ops has not been initialized. Therefore, the following
problem is triggered:

To solve this issue, msblk->thread_ops is initialized immediately after
msblk is assigned a value.
