Although this is currently fine, I think ext4_move_extents() should be
careful and zero out *moved_len before it starts using it.

So I'm not sure the *moved_len > len condition can ever trigger but if it
does, we'd need to check it whenever we are returning moved_len. So either
I'd delete the condition or move it to the out label.
