Subject[patch][regression after 3.1] minixfs: misplaced checks lead to dentry leak
bitmap size sanity checks should be done *before* allocating ->s_root;
there their cleanup on failure would be correct. As it is, we do iput()
on root inode, but leak the root dentry...

I realize that we are *very* late in this cycle, but this is (a) obvious and
obviously affecting only minixfs and (b) introduced in this cycle.
