Hi Chengguang,

å 2019å05æ05æ 19:01, Chengguang Xu åé:
When fail from creating cache jbd2_inode_cache, we will
destroy previously created cache jbd2_handle_cache twice.
This patch fixes it by removing first destroy in error path.

Maybe we should keep it, and set the jbd2_handle_cache to NULL.
If there are some changes in the future, we may forget to change the function
of jbd2_journal_destroy_handle_cache.

Thanks,
