A NULL pointer panic dereference in ocfs2_block_group_clear_bits() happen again.
The information of NULL pointer stack as follows:

The direct panic reason is that bh2jh (group_bh)-> b_committed_data is null.
It is presumed that the network was disconnected during the write process,
causing the transaction abort. as follows:
jbd2_journal_abort
  .......
  jbd2_journal_commit_transaction
    jh->b_committed_data = NULL;

_ocfs2_free_suballoc_bits
  ocfs2_block_group_clear_bits
    // undo_bg is now set to null
    BUG_ON(!undo_bg);

When applying for free space, if b_committed_data is null,
it will be directly occupied, as follows:
ocfs2_cluster_group_search
  ocfs2_block_group_find_clear_bits
    ocfs2_test_bg_bit_allocatable:
      bg = (struct ocfs2_group_desc *) bh2jh(bg_bh)->b_committed_data;
      if (bg)
        ret = !ocfs2_test_bit(nr, (unsigned long *)bg->bg_bitmap);
      else
        ret = 1;
b_committed_data is an intermediate state backup for bitmap transaction commits,
newly applied space can overwrite previous dirty data,
so, I think, while free clusters, if b_committed_data is null, ignore it.
Host panic directly, too violent.
