If an error occurs during jbd2 cache initialisation it is possible for the
journal_head_cache to be NULL when jbd2_journal_destroy_journal_head_cache is
called.  Replace the J_ASSERT with an if block to handle the situation
correctly.

Note that even with this fix things will break badly if jbd2 is statically
compiled in and cache initialisation fails.
