Subject: [PATCH 5.10 214/215] ext4: fix memory leak in ext4_fill_super

From: Pavel Skripkin <paskripkin@...il.com>

commit 618f003199c6188e01472b03cdbba227f1dc5f24 upstream.

static int kthread(void *_create) will return -ENOMEM
or -EINTR in case of internal failure or
kthread_stop() call happens before threadfn call.

To prevent fancy error checking and make code
more straightforward we moved all cleanup code out
of kmmpd threadfn.

Also, dropped struct mmpd_data at all. Now struct super_block
is a threadfn data and struct buffer_head embedded into
struct ext4_sb_info.
