Subject: [PATCH v2 11/20] ext4: remove unnecessary check in ext4_mb_new_blocks

1. remove unnecessary ac check:
We always go to out tag before ac is successfully allocated, then we can
move out tag after free of ac and remove NULL check of ac.

2. remove unnecessary *errp check:
We always go to errout tag if *errp is non-zero, then we can move errout
tag into error handle if *errp is non-zero.
