Sure, will make above two changes.

Btw, any general rules of when should we use put_bh() v/s brelse()?

Assumption about why I used put_bh() above was that in a non-error loop, where
we are doing ext4_read_block_bitmap() (which will return bh with b_count
elevated), I thought, we could simply do put_bh() in the end.

But when there is a possibility of an error occurred somewhere in
between, then it's safe to do brelse().
