ocfs2: fix NULL pointer dereference in ocfs2_journal_dirty()

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ocfs2: fix NULL pointer dereference in ocfs2_journal_dirty()

bdev->bd_super has been removed and commit 8887b94d9322 change the usage
from bdev->bd_super to b_assoc_map->host->i_sb.  This introduces the
following NULL pointer dereference in ocfs2_journal_dirty() since
b_assoc_map is still not initialized.  This can be easily reproduced by
running xfstests generic/186, which simulate no more credits.

Fix it by only aborting transaction and journal in ocfs2_journal_dirty()
now, and leave ocfs2_abort() later when detecting an aborted handle,
e.g. start next transaction. Also log the handle details in this case.
