Hi Baokun,

Thanks for catching this and move forward fixing this!

I'm not sure if allocating erofs_sb_info in erofs_init_fs_context() will
be better, as I see some filesystems (e.g. autofs) do this way. Maybe
another potential advantage of doing this way is that erofs_fs_context
is not needed anymore and we can use sbi directly.

I'm not sure if abstracting this logic into a seperate helper really
helps understanding the code as the logic itself is quite simple and
easy to be understood. Usually it's a hint of over-abstraction when a
simple helper has only one caller.
