ext4: don't try to processed freed blocks until mballoc is initialized
If we try to make any changes via the journal between when the journal is initialized, but before the multi-block allocated is initialized, we will end up deferencing a NULL pointer when the journal commit callback function calls ext4_process_freed_data(). The proximate cause of this failure was commit 2d01ddc86606 ("ext4: save error info to sb through journal if available") since file system corruption problems detected before the call to ext4_mb_init() would result in a journal commit before we aborted the mount of the file system.... and we would then trigger the NULL pointer deref.
