jbd2: skip reading super block if it has been verified

We got a NULL pointer dereference issue below while running generic/475
I/O failure pressure test.

 BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000

The root cause is the journal super block had been failed to write out
due to I/O fault injection, it's uptodate bit was cleared by
end_buffer_write_sync() and didn't reset yet in jbd2_write_superblock().
And it raced by journal_get_superblock()->bh_read(), unfortunately, the
read IO is also failed, so the error handling in
journal_fail_superblock() unexpectedly clear the journal->j_sb_buffer,
finally lead to above NULL pointer dereference issue.

If the journal super block had been read and verified, there is no need
to call bh_read() read it again even if it has been failed to written
out. So the fix could be simply move buffer_verified(bh) in front of
bh_read(). Also remove a stale comment left in
jbd2_journal_check_used_features().
