jbd2: fix use-after-free of transaction_t race

jbd2_journal_wait_updates() is called with j_state_lock held. But if
there is a commit in progress, then this transaction might get committed
and freed via jbd2_journal_commit_transaction() ->
jbd2_journal_free_transaction(), when we release j_state_lock.
So check for journal->j_running_transaction everytime we release and
acquire j_state_lock to avoid use-after-free issue.

Fixes: 4f981868 ("jbd2: refactor wait logic for transaction updates into a common function")
