Subject: [PATCH] ext4: do not use ext4_error() when there is no space in dir leaf for csum

If there is no space for a checksum in a directory leaf node,
previously we would use EXT4_ERROR_INODE() which would mark the file
system as inconsistent.  While it would be nice to use e2fsck -D, it
certainly isn't required, so just print a warning using
ext4_warning().
