Nice catch.
Actually, &si->stat_lock was introduced to cope with this issue.
So, we need to remove the existing &si->stat_lock, and add your global
f2fs_stat_mutex.
Then, we're able to remove "si->sbi = NULL"-related stuffs too.

I think it cannot fix the problem.
Still the above errorneous scenario is able to be occurred.
