jbd2: fix race between jbd2_journal_remove_checkpoint and ->j_commit_callback
The following race is possible:
[kjournald2] other_task
jbd2_journal_commit_transaction()
j_state = T_FINISHED;
spin_unlock(&journal->j_list_lock);
->jbd2_journal_remove_checkpoint()
->jbd2_journal_free_transaction();
->kmem_cache_free(transaction)
->j_commit_callback(journal, transaction);
-> USE_AFTER_FREE

In order to demonstrace this issue one should mount ext4 with mount -o
discard option on SSD disk. This makes callback longer and race
window becomes wider.
In order to fix this we should mark transaction as finished only after
callbacks have completed
