Subject: [PATCH 5.4 165/184] ext4: fix error code in ext4_commit_super

From: Fengnan Chang <changfengnan@...o.com>

commit f88f1466e2a2e5ca17dfada436d3efa1b03a3972 upstream.

We should set the error code when ext4_commit_super check argument failed.
Found in code review.
Fixes: c4be0c1dc4cdc ("filesystem freeze: add error handling of write_super_lockfs/unlockfs").
