I found a NULL pointer dereference in ocfs2_update_inode_fsync_trans(),
handle->h_transaction may be NULL in this situation:

ocfs2_file_write_iter
  ->__generic_file_write_iter
      ->generic_perform_write
        ->ocfs2_write_begin
          ->ocfs2_write_begin_nolock
            ->ocfs2_write_cluster_by_desc
              ->ocfs2_write_cluster
                ->ocfs2_mark_extent_written
                  ->ocfs2_change_extent_flag
                    ->ocfs2_split_extent
                      ->ocfs2_try_to_merge_extent
                        ->ocfs2_extend_rotate_transaction
                          ->ocfs2_extend_trans
                            ->jbd2_journal_restart
                              ->jbd2__journal_restart
                                // handle->h_transaction is NULL here
                                ->handle->h_transaction = NULL;
                                ->start_this_handle
            ...
