Subject: jbd2: fix incorrect unlock on j_list_lock

From: Taesoo Kim <tsgatesv@gmail.com>

commit 559cce698eaf4ccecb2213b2519ea3a0413e5155 upstream.

When 'jh->b_transaction == transaction' (asserted by below)

  J_ASSERT_JH(jh, (jh->b_transaction == transaction || ...

'journal->j_list_lock' will be incorrectly unlocked, since
the the lock is aquired only at the end of if / else-if
statements (missing the else case).
