Seems to have a use-after-free bug.  Did you test it with CONFIG_SLAB_DEBUG?

I can't immediately spot the error.  It oopses here:

0xc01a5b78 is in journal_clean_one_cp_list (fs/jbd/checkpoint.c:583).
578             int ret = 0;
579     
580             if (!jh)
581                     return 0;
582     
583             last_jh = jh->b_cpprev;
584             do {
585                     jh = next_jh;
586                     next_jh = jh->b_cpnext;
587                     /* Use trylock because of the ranking */

Called from here:
