fuse: separate fuse device allocation and installation in fuse_conn
As of now fuse_dev_alloc() both allocates a fuse device and installs it in fuse_conn list. fuse_dev_alloc() can fail if fuse_device allocation fails. virtio-fs needs to initialize multiple fuse devices (one per virtio queue). It initializes one fuse device as part of call to fuse_fill_super_common() and rest of the devices are allocated and installed after that. But, we can't afford to fail after calling fuse_fill_super_common() as we don't have a way to undo all the actions done by fuse_fill_super_common(). So to avoid failures after the call to fuse_fill_super_common(), pre-allocate all fuse devices early and install them into fuse connection later. This patch provides two separate helpers for fuse device allocation and fuse device installation in fuse_conn.
