Subject: [071/102] ext4: free allocated and pre-allocated blocks when check_eofblocks_fl fails

3.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Jiaying Zhang <jiayingz@...gle.com>

commit 575a1d4bdfa2ea9fc10733013136145b497e1be0 upstream.

Upon corrupted inode or disk failures, we may fail after we already
allocate some blocks from the inode or take some blocks from the
inode's preallocation list, but before we successfully insert the
corresponding extent to the extent tree. In this case, we should free
any allocated blocks and discard the inode's preallocated blocks
because the entries in the inode's preallocation list may be in an
inconsistent state.
