Subject: [PATCH v2] f2fs: fix use-after-free issue when accessing sbi->stat_info

iput() on sbi->node_inode can update sbi->stat_info
in the below context, if the f2fs_write_checkpoint()
has failed with error.

f2fs_balance_fs_bg+0x1ac/0x1ec
f2fs_write_node_pages+0x4c/0x260
do_writepages+0x80/0xbc
__writeback_single_inode+0xdc/0x4ac
writeback_single_inode+0x9c/0x144
write_inode_now+0xc4/0xec
iput+0x194/0x22c
f2fs_put_super+0x11c/0x1e8
generic_shutdown_super+0x70/0xf4
kill_block_super+0x2c/0x5c
kill_f2fs_super+0x44/0x50
deactivate_locked_super+0x60/0x8c
deactivate_super+0x68/0x74
cleanup_mnt+0x40/0x78

Fix this by moving f2fs_destroy_stats() further below iput() in
both f2fs_put_super() and f2fs_fill_super() paths.

v2:
- cover f2fs_fill_super() also, as pointed out by Chao.
