Subject: [PATCH] ext4: no need to remove extent if len is 0 in ext4_es_remove_extent()

len is 0 means no extent needs to be removed, so return immediately.
Otherwise it could trigger the following BUG_ON()

	436	end = offset + len - 1;
	437	BUG_ON(end < offset);

This could be reproduced by a simple truncate(1) command by an
unprivileged user

	truncate -s $(($((2**32 - 1)) * 4096)) /mnt/ext4/testfile

The same is true for __es_insert_extent().

Patched kernel passed xfstests regression test.

Also remove comments about EXT4_I(inode)->i_es_lock, this rwlock
isn't hold by callers.
