[PATCH 2.4] - Fixes bug in fs/ext3/super.c.

[Luiz Fernando N. Capitulino]

 Hi Marcelo,

  Some time ago I fixed this bug in 2.6.

  There is a `return NULL' missing in ext3_get_journal() if the
 call to journal_init_inode() fail. Note that if the error happens,
 `journal' will be NULL and used.

(agains't 2.4.28-pre2).
