The driver may sleep under a spin lock, and the function call path is:
journal_wait_for_write (acquire the lock by spin_lock)
   closure_sync

To fix it, the lock is released before "closure_sync", and the lock is
acquired again after this function.

Sorry, my patch is not correct, and it will cause double unlock.
Please ignore my patch.
