OK. I will fix it.

Yes, journal_bdev is only filled in ext4_get_dev_journal() function
for external journal device.

Yes, it also miscalculates the number of file system overhead blocks
for external journal device. This causes the f_blocks field in the
statfs
structure to be smaller than it should be.

This would cause the "df" output to show the number of data blocks in
the file system smaller than they should be, and the number of used
blocks might be negative.
