[PATCH] fuse: fix bug in aborted fuse_release_end()

There's a rather theoretical case of the BUG triggering in
fuse_reset_request():

  - iget() fails because of OOM after a successful CREATE_OPEN request
  - during IO on the resulting RELEASE request the connection is aborted

Fix and add warning to fuse_reset_request().
