Baokun Li f9c1f24860 ext4: fix null-ptr-deref in ext4_write_info
I caught a null-ptr-deref bug as follows:
==================================================================
KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000068-0x000000000000006f]

Above issue may happen as follows:
-------------------------------------
exit_to_user_mode_prepare
 task_work_run
  __cleanup_mnt
   cleanup_mnt
    deactivate_super
     deactivate_locked_super
      kill_block_super
       generic_shutdown_super
        shrink_dcache_for_umount
         dentry = sb->s_root
         sb->s_root = NULL              <--- Here set NULL
        sync_filesystem
         __sync_filesystem
          sb->s_op->sync_fs > ext4_sync_fs
           dquot_writeback_dquots
            sb->dq_op->write_info > ext4_write_info
             ext4_journal_start(d_inode(sb->s_root), EXT4_HT_QUOTA, 2)
              d_inode(sb->s_root)
               s_root->d_inode          <--- Null pointer dereference

To solve this problem, we use ext4_journal_start_sb directly
to avoid s_root being used.
