Subject: [PATCH] jfs: Fix NULL pointer dereference in diFree

I got a NULL pointer dereference report when doing fuzz test:

 jfs_mount: diMount failed w/rc = -5
 BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000004

Similar to commit 9d574f985fe3 ("jfs: fix GPF in diFree"),
diFreeSpecial(ipimap)->..->diFree() will be called if diMount(ipimap)
fails in jfs_mount(). This will result in a null pointer reference in
diFree() because the imap is not allocated in diFreeSpecial().

int diFree(struct inode *ip)
{
	...
	struct inomap *imap = JFS_IP(ipimap)->i_imap; // imap == NULL
	...
	if (iagno >= imap->im_nextiag) { // null pointer reference
	...
}

If diFreeSpecial(ipimap) in jfs_mount() fails, there is no need to
call diFree(), because diAlloc() is not called in the mount process.
