ocfs2: avoid potential ABBA deadlock by reordering tl_inode lock

In ocfs2_move_extent(), tl_inode is currently locked after the global
bitmap inode.  However, in ocfs2_flush_truncate_log(), the lock order is
reversed: tl_inode is locked first, followed by the global bitmap inode.

This creates a classic ABBA deadlock scenario if two threads attempt these
operations concurrently and acquire the locks in different orders.

To prevent this, move the tl_inode locking earlier in ocfs2_move_extent(),
so that it always precedes the global bitmap inode lock.

No functional changes beyond lock ordering.
