Why isn't this done in the same place that ->init_fs_context() would otherwise
be called?  It logically does the same thing, right?

Okay, but now there's a NULL pointer dereference because fc->ops->free() can be
called with NULL fc->fs_private.  Probably fc->ops->free() shouldn't be called
in that case.

int main()
{
        int fd = syscall(__NR_fsopen, "tmpfs", 0);
        write(fd, "x create", 8);
        syscall(__NR_fsmount, fd, 0, 0);
}
