[BUG]
On a withdrawn GFS2 filesystem, lseek(fd, 0x3ff, SEEK_HOLE) can crash
with:

KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000010-0x0000000000000017]
RIP: 0010:gfs2_glock_dq+0x5a/0x960 fs/gfs2/glock.c:1642
Call Trace:
 gfs2_glock_dq_uninit+0x1c/0xe0 fs/gfs2/glock.c:1708
 gfs2_seek_hole+0x152/0x270 fs/gfs2/inode.c:2222

 __se_sys_lseek fs/read_write.c:410 [inline]
 __x64_sys_lseek+0x77/0xc0 fs/read_write.c:410
 ...

[CAUSE]
gfs2_seek_data() and gfs2_seek_hole() call gfs2_glock_dq_uninit()
unconditionally. When gfs2_glock_nq_init() fails, it already calls
gfs2_holder_uninit(), which clears gh->gh_gl. Since gfs2_glock_nq()
returns -EIO on withdrawn filesystems, the unconditional dequeue
dereferences a NULL glock pointer.

[FIX]
Only dequeue the seek helper's holder when glock acquisition succeeded.
This keeps the fix at the caller-side lifecycle boundary, matches the
existing SEEK_END pattern, and returns the original glock acquisition
error instead of crashing.

Fixes: 3a27411cb4bc ("gfs2: Implement SEEK_HOLE / SEEK_DATA via iomap")
