and the pairing kunmap is hidden in this helper with mismatching name.
It's correct but the common cleanup code at the fail_alloc label can be
used to avoid calling btrfs_release_disk_super at each error branch.

The helper is trival, kunmap(), put_page(). I'd rather keep it opencoded
in case the kmap happens in the function so it can be easily seen what's
the span of the mapping.
