Subject: [PATCH] media: media-request: Fix crash if memory allocation fails

Syzbot reports a NULL-ptr deref in the kref_put() call:

BUG: KASAN: null-ptr-deref in media_request_put drivers/media/mc/mc-request.c:81 [inline]
 kref_put include/linux/kref.h:64 [inline]
 media_request_put drivers/media/mc/mc-request.c:81 [inline]
 media_request_close+0x4d/0x170 drivers/media/mc/mc-request.c:89

 exit_to_usermode_loop arch/x86/entry/common.c:165 [inline]
 prepare_exit_to_usermode+0x48e/0x600 arch/x86/entry/common.c:196

What led to this crash was an injected memory allocation failure in
media_request_alloc():

FAULT_INJECTION: forcing a failure.
name failslab, interval 1, probability 0, space 0, times 0
 should_failslab+0x5/0x20
 kmem_cache_alloc_trace+0x57/0x300
 ? anon_inode_getfile+0xe5/0x170

 ? media_poll+0x110/0x110
 __se_sys_ioctl+0xf9/0x160
 do_syscall_64+0xf3/0x1b0

When that allocation fails, filp->private_data is left uninitialized
which media_request_close() does not expect and crashes.

To avoid this, reorder media_request_alloc() such that
allocating the struct file happens as the last step thus
media_request_close() will no longer get called for a partially created
media request.
