Since the group may be unlocked in ext4_grp_locked_error(), this can lead to problems such as dividing by zero when calculating the average fragment length. Hence move the update of bb_free to after the block double-free check guarantees that the corresponding statistics are updated only after the core block bitmap is modified.
