Ye Bin 298b5c5217 ext4: fix null-ptr-deref in '__ext4_journal_ensure_credits'
We got issue as follows when run syzkaller test:

This issue may happens like this:
	Process1                               Process2
ext4_evict_inode
  ext4_journal_start
   ext4_truncate
     ext4_ind_truncate
       ext4_free_branches
         ext4_ind_truncate_ensure_credits
	   ext4_journal_ensure_credits_fn
	     ext4_journal_restart
	       handle->h_transaction = NULL;
                                           mount -o remount,abort  /mnt
					   -> trigger JBD abort
               start_this_handle -> will return failed
  ext4_xattr_delete_inode
    ext4_journal_ensure_credits
      ext4_journal_ensure_credits_fn
        __ext4_journal_ensure_credits
	  jbd2_handle_buffer_credits
	    journal = handle->h_transaction->t_journal; ->null-ptr-deref

Now, indirect truncate process didn't handle error. To solve this issue
maybe simply add check handle is abort in '__ext4_journal_ensure_credits'
is enough, and i also think this is necessary.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
