My bad, I didn't test but now I did and the issue is actually
worse than just a memory leak. This error path crashes upstream
without this patch:

The crash happens because we're assuming fm was already added to
fc->mounts...

bool fuse_mount_remove(struct fuse_mount *fm)
{
	struct fuse_conn *fc = fm->fc;
	bool last = false;

	down_write(&fc->killsb);
	list_del_init(&fm->fc_entry); <=== HERE
	if (list_empty(&fc->mounts))
		last = true;
	up_write(&fc->killsb);

	return last;
}

but fm is added to fc->mounts much later after the superblock is fully
configured. Looking again at what is done for the root mount in
virtio_fs_get_tree(), I now realize sb->s_fs_info is used as a flag
to decide whether fuse_mount_remove() should be called:

static int virtio_fs_get_tree(struct fs_context *fsc)
{
...
	if (!sb->s_root) {
		err = virtio_fs_fill_super(sb, fsc);
		if (err) {
			fuse_conn_put(fc);
			kfree(fm);
CLEARED HERE =>		sb->s_fs_info = NULL;
			deactivate_locked_super(sb);
			return err;
		}

		sb->s_flags |= SB_ACTIVE;
	}
...
}

static void virtio_kill_sb(struct super_block *sb)
{
	struct fuse_mount *fm = get_fuse_mount_super(sb);

I.E. sb->s_fs_info

	bool last;

	/* If mount failed, we can still be called without any fc */
	if (fm) {

TESTED HERE ^^

		last = fuse_mount_remove(fm);
		if (last)
			virtio_fs_conn_destroy(fm);
	}
	kill_anon_super(sb);
}

The natural fix is to do the same in the automount case : take
back the ownership on fm by clearing sb->s_fs_info, which thus
implies to do the freeing.
