ext4: fix mmp use after free during unmount

Browse source 
In ext4_put_super, we call brelse on the buffer head containing
the ext4 superblock, but then try to use it when we stop the
mmp thread, because when the thread shuts down it does:

write_mmp_block
  ext4_mmp_csum_set
    ext4_has_metadata_csum
      WARN_ON_ONCE(ext4_has_feature_metadata_csum(sb)...)

which reaches into sb->s_fs_info->s_es->s_feature_ro_compat,
which lives in the superblock buffer s_sbh which we just released.

Fix this by moving the brelse down to a point where we are no
longer using it.
