The current hfsplus_put_super first calls hfs_btree_close on sbi->ext_tree, then invokes iput on sbi->hidden_dir, resulting in an use-after-free issue in hfsplus_release_folio. As shown in hfsplus_fill_super, the error handling code also calls iput before hfs_btree_close. To fix this error, we move all iput calls before hfsplus_btree_close. Note that this patch is tested on Syzbot.
