If fscache_alloc_cookie encounters memory allocation failure, it will
go to nomem label and invoke fscache_free_cookie. However,
fscache_alloc_cookie assumes current cookie is already linked into
fscache_cookies and directly calls list_del. This assumption does not
hold since list_add is not called in the above scenario. As a result, it
will lead to Null Pointer Dereference. The stack trace is in the
following.

Fix this by moving the list_add_tail before goto statements.
