In remove_from_transaction(), there is an if statement on line 3447 to
check whether bh is NULL:
    if (bh)

When bh is NULL, it is used on line 3450:
    clear_buffer_journaled(bh);
and lines 3453-3456:
    clear_buffer_journal_dirty(bh);
    clear_buffer_dirty(bh);
    clear_buffer_journal_test(bh);
    put_bh(bh);

Thus, possible null-pointer dereferences may occur.

To fix these bugs, bh is checked before being used.

These bugs are found by a static analysis tool STCheck written by us.
