[PATCH 5.12 113/700] fuse: Fix crash if superblock of submount gets killed early

From: Greg Kurz <groug@xxxxxxxx>

commit e3a43f2a95393000778f8f302d48795add2fc4a8 upstream.

As soon as fuse_dentry_automount() does up_write(&sb->s_umount), the
superblock can theoretically be killed. If this happens before the
submount was added to the &fc->mounts list, fuse_mount_remove() later
crashes in list_del_init() because it assumes the submount to be
already there.

Add the submount before dropping sb->s_umount to fix the inconsistency.
It is okay to nest fc->killsb under sb->s_umount, we already do this
on the ->kill_sb() path.
