Subject: [PATCH v3] ext4: Fix bug on in ext4_es_cache_extent as ext4_split_extent_at failed

We got follow bug_on when run fsstress with injecting IO fault:

If call ext4_ext_insert_extent failed but new extent already inserted, we just
update "ex->ee_len = orig_ex.ee_len", this will lead to extent overlap, then
cause bug on when cache extent.
If call ext4_ext_insert_extent failed don't update ex->ee_len with old value.
Maybe there will lead to block leak, but it can be fixed by fsck later.

After we fixed above issue with v2 patch, but we got the same issue.
ext4_split_extent_at:
{
        ......
        err = ext4_ext_insert_extent(handle, inode, ppath, &newex, flags);
        if (err == -ENOSPC && (EXT4_EXT_MAY_ZEROOUT & split_flag)) {
            ......
            ext4_ext_try_to_merge(handle, inode, path, ex); ->step(1)
            err = ext4_ext_dirty(handle, inode, path + path->p_depth); ->step(2)
            if (err)
                goto fix_extent_len;
        ......
        }
        ......
fix_extent_len:
        ex->ee_len = orig_ex.ee_len; ->step(3)
        ......
}
If step(1) have been merged, but step(2) dirty extent failed, then go to
fix_extent_len label to fix ex->ee_len with orig_ex.ee_len. But "ex" may not be
old one, will cause overwritten. Then will trigger the same issue as previous.
If step(2) failed, just return error, don't fix ex->ee_len with old value.
