Subject: ocfs2: prevent release journal inode after journal shutdown
Date: Tue, 19 Aug 2025 21:41:02 +0800

Before calling ocfs2_delete_osb(), ocfs2_journal_shutdown() has already
been executed in ocfs2_dismount_volume(), so osb->journal must be NULL. 
Therefore, the following calltrace will inevitably fail when it reaches
jbd2_journal_release_jbd_inode().

ocfs2_dismount_volume()->
  ocfs2_delete_osb()->
    ocfs2_free_slot_info()->
      __ocfs2_free_slot_info()->
        evict()->
          ocfs2_evict_inode()->
            ocfs2_clear_inode()->
	      jbd2_journal_release_jbd_inode(osb->journal->j_journal,

Adding osb->journal checks will prevent null-ptr-deref during the above
execution path.
