Don't pass error pointers to brelse().

commit 7159a986b420 ("ext4: fix some error pointer dereferences") has fixed
some cases, fix the remaining one case.

Once ext4_xattr_block_find()->ext4_sb_bread() failed, error pointer is
stored in @bs->bh, which will be passed to brelse() in the cleanup
routine of ext4_xattr_set_handle(). This will then cause a NULL panic
crash in __brelse().

BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 000000000000005b
RIP: 0010:__brelse+0x1b/0x50
Call Trace:
 ext4_xattr_set_handle+0x163/0x5d0
 ext4_xattr_set+0x95/0x110
 __vfs_setxattr+0x6b/0x80
 __vfs_setxattr_noperm+0x68/0x1b0
 vfs_setxattr+0xa0/0xb0
 setxattr+0x12c/0x1a0
 path_setxattr+0x8d/0xc0
 __x64_sys_setxattr+0x27/0x30
 do_syscall_64+0x60/0x250
 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x49/0xbe

In this case, @bs->bh stores '-EIO' actually.
