ext4: don't set up encryption key during jbd2 transaction
From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@google.com> commit 4c0d5778 upstream. Commit a80f7fcf ("ext4: fixup ext4_fc_track_* functions' signature") extended the scope of the transaction in ext4_unlink() too far, making it include the call to ext4_find_entry(). However, ext4_find_entry() can deadlock when called from within a transaction because it may need to set up the directory's encryption key. Fix this by restoring the transaction to its original scope.
