JFS_SBI(ipbmap->i_sb)->bmap wasn't set to NULL after kfree() in
dbUnmount().

Syzkaller uses faultinject to reproduce this KASAN double-free
warning. The issue is triggered if either diMount() or dbMount() fail
in jfs_remount(), since diUnmount() or dbUnmount() already happened in
such a case - they will do double-free on next execution: jfs_umount
or jfs_remount.

Tested on both upstream and jfs-next by syzkaller.
