[BUG][reiserfs] page fault during kernel boot

Hi all,

The function: reiserfs_evict_inode() ends with:

<snip>
out:
end_writeback(inode); /* note this must go after the journal_end to prevent deadlock */
dquot_drop(inode);
inode->i_blocks = 0;
reiserfs_write_unlock_once(inode->i_sb, depth);

no_delete:
end_writeback(inode);
dquot_drop(inode);
}
<snip>

When goto out path is taken,

end_writeback(inode);
dquot_drop(inode);

are executed twice, leading to page fault (in my case) during the kernel boot.

Add return; before no_delete label (but I am not quite sure that this is correct :-).
