[PATCH 1/2] xfs: fix log ticket leak on forced shutdown.

[Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com>]

From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>

The kmemleak detector shows this after test 139:

unreferenced object 0xffff880079b88bb0 (size 264):
  comm "xfs_io", pid 4904, jiffies 4294909382 (age 276.824s)

By inspection, the leak occurs when xlog_write() returns and error
and we jump to the abort path without dropping the reference on the
active ticket.
