fs: prevent BUG_ON in submit_bh_wbc()
If a device is hot-removed --- for example, when a physical device is unplugged from pcie slot or a nbd device's network is shutdown --- this can result in a BUG_ON() crash in submit_bh_wbc(). This is because the when the block device dies, the buffer heads will have their Buffer_Mapped flag get cleared, leading to the crash in submit_bh_wbc. We had attempted to work around this problem in commit a17712c8 ("ext4: check superblock mapped prior to committing"). Unfortunately, it's still possible to hit the BUG_ON(!buffer_mapped(bh)) if the device dies between when the work-around check in ext4_commit_super() and when submit_bh_wbh() is finally called: Code path: ext4_commit_super judge if 'buffer_mapped(sbh)' is false, return <== commit a17712c8 lock_buffer(sbh) ... unlock_buffer(sbh) __sync_dirty_buffer(sbh,... lock_buffer(sbh) judge if 'buffer_mapped(sbh))' is false, return <== added by this patch submit_bh(...,sbh) submit_bh_wbc(...,sbh,...)

This also has the benefit of fixing this for other file systems. With this addition, we can drop the workaround in ext4_commit_supper().
