[PATCH] Test for sb_getblk return value 

This patch adds tests for the return value of sb_getblk() in the ext2/3
filesystems.  In fs/buffer.c it is stated that the getblk() function never
fails.  However, it does can return NULL in some situations due to I/O
errors, which may lead us to NULL pointer dereferences
