nilfs2: fix list corruption after ifile creation failure
If nilfs_attach_checkpoint() gets a memory allocation failure during
creation of ifile, it will return without removing nilfs_sb_info
struct from ns_supers list. When a concurrently mounted snapshot is
unmounted or another new snapshot is mounted after that, this causes
kernel oops as below:

This fixes the problem.
