OK, these two points are the same, the original alternative patch to fixup it is to use bdevname(),
However I saw what is done in drivers/usb/gadget/function/f_fs.c, therefore I fixed in as what I saw in f_fs.c.

I could remove erofs_mount_private entirely if you want. :)

Thanks for pointing out. After I think into this piece of code, I also think that is redundant.
I will fix it immediately, thanks again for pointing out.
