mm/hugetlbfs: fix error handling when setting up mounts
It is assumed that the hugetlbfs_vfsmount[] array will contain either a valid vfsmount pointer or NULL for each hstate after initialization. Changes made while converting to use fs_context broke this assumption. While fixing the hugetlbfs_vfsmount issue, it was discovered that init_hugetlbfs_fs never did correctly clean up when encountering a vfs mount error. It was found during code inspection. A small memory allocation failure would be the most likely cause of taking a error path with the bug. This is unlikely to happen as this is early init code.
