Totally agree! It does streamline a lot!

Sure, I'll just use kill_anon_super().

The helper function here is to avoid extern erofs_anon_fs_type(), because
we define it in fscache.c, but also use it in super.c. Moreover, we 
don't need
to register it when CONFIG_EROFS_FS_ONDEMAND is not enabled, so we
also use this helper function for code isolation.

Thanks for having a look!
