sget_fc() will either consume fsc->s_fs_info in case a new super
block is allocated and set fsc->s_fs_info. In that case we don't
free fc or fm.

Or, sget_fc() will return with fsc->s_fs_info set in case we already
found a super block. In that case we need to free fc and fm.

In case of error from sget_fc(), fc/fm need to be freed first and
then error needs to be returned to caller.

        if (IS_ERR(sb))
                return PTR_ERR(sb);


If we allocated a new super block in sget_fc(), then next step is
to initialize it.

        if (!sb->s_root) {
                err = virtio_fs_fill_super(sb, fsc);
        }

If we run into errors here, then fc/fm need to be freed.

So current code looks fine to me.
