s_root->d_inode <--- Null pointer dereference
To solve this problem, we use ext4_journal_start_sb directly
to avoid s_root being used.
Are we syncing the file system after the superblock shutdown and getting
away with it? This does not look good. Do you have a reproducer?
Thanks!

Hi, Lukas!
This problem is triggered by a pressure test when I reproduce another
problem.
So I didn't have the reproducer.
I looked at the error stack code and found that it seems there is
something wrong.
Moreover, it's really weird to write code like
"ext4_journal_start(d_inode(sb->s_root), ...)".
