Subject: [PATCH 5.1 088/128] ext4: avoid drop reference to iloc.bh twice

From: Pan Bian <bianpan2016@....com>

commit 8c380ab4b7b59c0c602743810be1b712514eaebc upstream.

The reference to iloc.bh has been dropped in ext4_mark_iloc_dirty.
However, the reference is dropped again if error occurs during
ext4_handle_dirty_metadata, which may result in use-after-free bugs.

Fixes: fb265c9cb49e("ext4: add ext4_sb_bread() to disambiguate ENOMEM cases")
