nilfs2: fix hang problem of log writer which occurs after write failures

Leandro Lucarella gave me a report that nilfs gets stuck after its
write function fails.

The problem turned out to be caused by bugs which leave writeback flag
on pages.  This fixes the problem by ensuring to clear the writeback
flag in error path.
