[PATCH] v9fs: don't free root dentry & inode if error occurs in v9fs_get_sb
If error occurs while in v9fs_get_sb after it calles sget, the dentry object of the root and its inode may be freed twice -- once while handling the error in v9fs_get_sb, and second time when v9fs_get_sb calles deactivate_super (which in turn calls v9fs_kill_super) The patch removes the unnecessary code that frees the root dentry and its inode.
