[RFC][PATCH] switch do_new_mount_fc() to using fc_mount()

[Al Viro <viro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

[
This is on top of -rc3; if nobody objects, I'll insert that early in series
in viro/vfs.git#work.mount.  It has an impact for LSM folks - ->sb_kern_mount()
would be called without ->s_umount; nothing in-tree cares, but if you have
objections, yell now.
]

Prior to the call of do_new_mount_fc() the caller has just done successful
vfs_get_tree().  Then do_new_mount_fc() does several checks on resulting
superblock, and either does fc_drop_locked() and returns an error or
proceeds to unlock the superblock and call vfs_create_mount().
    
The thing is, there's no reason to delay that unlock + vfs_create_mount() -
the tests do not rely upon the state of ->s_umount and
        fc_drop_locked()
        put_fs_context()
is equivalent to
        unlock ->s_umount
        put_fs_context()

Doing vfs_create_mount() before the checks allows us to move vfs_get_tree()
from caller to do_new_mount_fc() and collapse it with vfs_create_mount()
into an fc_mount() call.
