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,...)

To address this, add the check of 'buffer_mapped(bh)' to
__sync_dirty_buffer().  This also has the benefit of fixing this for
other file systems.

With this addition, we can drop the workaround in ext4_commit_supper().
