Subject: [PATCH 4.9 155/329] ceph: fix dentry leak when failing to init debugfs

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Chengguang Xu <cgxu519@...oud.com>

[ Upstream commit 18106734b512664a8541026519ce4b862498b6c3 ]

When failing from ceph_fs_debugfs_init() in ceph_real_mount(),
there is lack of dput of root_dentry and it causes slab errors,
so change the calling order of ceph_fs_debugfs_init() and
open_root_dentry() and do some cleanups to avoid this issue.
