Do not set the b_modified flag in block's journal head should not
until after we're sure that jbd2_journal_dirty_metadat() will not
abort with an error due to there not being enough space reserved in
the jbd2 handle.

Otherwise, future attempts to modify the buffer may lead a large
number of spurious errors and warnings.

This addresses CVE-2018-10883.
