jbd: replace potentially false assertion with if block
If an error occurs during jbd cache initialisation it is possible for the journal_head_cache to be NULL when journal_destroy_journal_head_cache is called. Replace the J_ASSERT with an if block to handle the situation correctly. Note that even with this fix things will break badly if jbd is statically compiled in and cache initialisation fails.
