>Description:
Current code of mount() in vfs_syscalls.c does not check,
erroneously, for error return from vfs_allocate_syncvnode().
The failure scenario is very unlikely to happen, however
(it'll only fail if it can't obtain a vnode). The attached
fix will prudently refrain from ignoring the return value.
