Subject: [PATCH, RFC 1/3] ext4: Convert calls of ext4_error() to EXT4_ERROR_INODE()

EXT4_ERROR_INODE() tends to provide better error information and in a
more consistent format.

Yes, there are more calls to ext4_error that we probably want to convert
to use ext4_error_inode; this is just for illustrative purposes, and
because it's the one which is most obnoxious if there is a bad entry in
a particular inode which is referenced over and over again (see patch 3
in this series).
