When gfs2_sys_fs_add() fails, it sets sb->s_fs_info to NULL on its error
path (see commit
0d515210b696 ("GFS2: Add kobject release method")).
The intention seems to be to prevent dereferencing sb->s_fs_info once
the object pointed to has been deallocated, but that would be better
achieved by setting the pointer to NULL in free_sbd().
As a consequence, when the call to gfs2_sys_fs_add() fails in
gfs2_fill_super(), sdp = GFS2_SB(inode) will evaluate to NULL in iput()
-> gfs2_drop_inode(), and accessing sdp->sd_flags will be a NULL pointer
dereference.
Fix that by only setting sb->s_fs_info to NULL when actually freeing the
object pointed to in free_sbd().
