Subject: [PATCH 1/2] jbd2: jbd2_log_wait_for_space improve error detetcion

If EIO happen after we have drop j_state_lock so it is reasonable to move this check under
i_sate_lock critical section. This patch helps to  prevent false positive complain after EIO
#DMESG:
__jbd2_log_wait_for_space: needed 8448 blocks and only had 8386 space available
__jbd2_log_wait_for_space: no way to get more journal space in ram1-8
