[PATCH] set freed perag structures to NULL to avoid mount failure oops

We encountered a bug after log replay failed on mount:

RAX is freed memory.

After xfs_mountfs() fails to replay the log, it
goes to out_perag_free: which does xfs_free_perag().

Later down the mount failure path, xfs_buf_rele() checks for (!pag):

        if (!pag) {
                ASSERT(list_empty(&bp->b_lru));
                ASSERT(RB_EMPTY_NODE(&bp->b_rbnode));
                if (atomic_dec_and_test(&bp->b_hold))
                        xfs_buf_free(bp);
                return;
        }

but we did not set the perag to NULL, so this doesn't get hit.
Next we do:

        if (atomic_dec_and_lock(&bp->b_hold, &pag->pag_buf_lock)) {

which goes bang if the perag has been freed.
