Oh right, I forgot the lock ordering is not very convenient for these two
locks. Ok, then I probably prefer your original solution to the one below.
But please add a comment like:

We use journal->j_state_lock here to serialize processing of
t_reserved_list with eviction of buffers from journal_unmap_buffer().

Thanks!
