Subject: fuse: initialize fc->release before calling it

commit 0ad0b3255a08020eaf50e34ef0d6df5bdf5e09ed upstream.

fc->release is called from fuse_conn_put() which was used in the error
cleanup before fc->release was initialized.

[Jeremiah Mahler <jmmahler at gmail.com>: assign fc->release after calling
fuse_conn_init(fc) instead of before.]
