Jan Kara 7f5aa21508 jbd2: Avoid possible NULL dereference in jbd2_journal_begin_ordered_truncate()
If we race with commit code setting i_transaction to NULL, we could
possibly dereference it.  Proper locking requires the journal pointer
(to access journal->j_list_lock), which we don't have.  So we have to
change the prototype of the function so that filesystem passes us the
journal pointer.  Also add a more detailed comment about why the
function jbd2_journal_begin_ordered_truncate() does what it does and
how it should be used.

Thanks to Dan Carpenter <error27@gmail.com> for pointing to the
suspitious code.
