Previously, deactivate_locked_super() or .kill_sb() will only be
called after fill_super is called, and .s_magic will be set at
the very beginning of erofs_fc_fill_super().

After ("fs: open block device after superblock creation"), such
convension is changed now.  Yet at a quick glance,

WARN_ON(sb->s_magic != EROFS_SUPER_MAGIC);

in erofs_kill_sb() can be removed since deactivate_locked_super()
will also be called if setup_bdev_super() is falled.  I'd suggest
that removing this WARN_ON() in the related commit, or as
a following commit of the related branch of the pull request if
possible.

Thanks,
