jbd2: gracefully abort instead of panicking on unlocked buffer
In jbd2_journal_get_create_access(), if the caller passes an unlocked
buffer, the code currently triggers a fatal J_ASSERT.
While an unlocked buffer here is a clear API violation and a bug in the
caller, crashing the entire system is an overly severe response. It brings
down the whole machine for a localized filesystem inconsistency.
Replace the J_ASSERT with a WARN_ON_ONCE to capture the offending caller's
stack trace, and return an error (-EINVAL). This allows the journal to
gracefully abort the transaction, protecting data integrity without
causing a kernel panic.
