There is a problem where a transaction will be committing while we're unmounting
the filesystem and you will get a panic because EXT4_SB(sb)->s_group_info has
been kfree'ed in ext4_put_super. The commit code does the callback for the
mballoc stuff to release free'ed blocks in the transaction and panic's trying to
access s_group_info. The fix is to wait for the transaction to finish
committing before we start cleaning up the mballoc stuff. This patch hasn't
been tested yet, but its an obvious fix.
