jbd2: fix use after free in kjournald2()

commit dbfcef6b0f4012c57bc0b6e0e660d5ed12a5eaed upstream.

Below is the synchronization issue between unmount and kjournald2
contexts, which results into use after free issue in kjournald2().
Fix this issue by using journal->j_state_lock to synchronize the
wait_event() done in journal_kill_thread() and the wake_up() done
in kjournald2().

TASK 1:
umount cmd:
   |--jbd2_journal_destroy() {
       |--journal_kill_thread() {
            write_lock(&journal->j_state_lock);
    journal->j_flags |= JBD2_UNMOUNT;
    ...
    write_unlock(&journal->j_state_lock);
    wake_up(&journal->j_wait_commit);    TASK 2 wakes up here:
        kjournald2() {
     ...
     checks JBD2_UNMOUNT flag and calls goto end-loop;
     ...
     end_loop:
       write_unlock(&journal->j_state_lock);
       journal->j_task = NULL; --> If this thread gets
       pre-empted here, then TASK 1 wait_event will
       exit even before this thread is completely
       done.
    wait_event(journal->j_wait_done_commit, journal->j_task == NULL);
    ...
    write_lock(&journal->j_state_lock);
    write_unlock(&journal->j_state_lock);
  }
       |--kfree(journal);
     }
}
       wake_up(&journal->j_wait_done_commit); --> this step
       now results into use after free issue.
   }
