[PATCH 7/9] jbd2: remove dead equality check of j_commit_[sequence/request] in kjournald2

[Kemeng Shi]

In kjournald2, two equality checks of j_commit_[sequence/request] are
under the same j_state_lock. As j_commit_[sequence/request] are updated
concurrently with j_state_lock held during runtime, the second check is
unnecessary.
The j_commit_sequence is only updated concurrently in
jbd2_journal_commit_transaction with j_state_lock held.
The j_commit_request is only updated concurrently in
__jbd2_log_start_commit with j_state_lock held.
Also see comment in struct journal_s about lock rule of j_commit_sequence
and j_commit_request.
