Lockdep reported the following issue when mounting erofs with a domain_id:

============================================
WARNING: possible recursive locking detected
6.8.0-rc7-xfstests #521 Not tainted
--------------------------------------------
mount/396 is trying to acquire lock:
ffff907a8aaaa0e0 (&type->s_umount_key#50/1){+.+.}-{3:3},
						at: alloc_super+0xe3/0x3d0

but task is already holding lock:
ffff907a8aaa90e0 (&type->s_umount_key#50/1){+.+.}-{3:3},
						at: alloc_super+0xe3/0x3d0

other info that might help us debug this:
 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0
       ----
  lock(&type->s_umount_key#50/1);
  lock(&type->s_umount_key#50/1);

 *** DEADLOCK ***

 May be due to missing lock nesting notation

2 locks held by mount/396:

This is because the file_system_type of both erofs and the pseudo-mount
point of domain_id is erofs_fs_type, so two successive calls to
alloc_super() are considered to be using the same lock and trigger the
warning above.

Therefore add a nodev file_system_type called erofs_anon_fs_type in
fscache.c to silence this complaint. Because kern_mount() takes a
pointer to struct file_system_type, not its (string) name. So we don't
need to call register_filesystem(). In addition, call init_pseudo() in
erofs_anon_init_fs_context() as suggested by Al Viro, so that we can
remove erofs_fc_fill_pseudo_super(), erofs_fc_anon_get_tree(), and
erofs_anon_context_ops.
