[PATCH 3/3] ext4: don't inherit inappropriate inode flags from parent

["Duane Griffin" <duaneg@dghda.com>]

At present INDEX and EXTENTS are the only flagis that new ext4 inodes do
NOT inherit from their parent. In addition prevent the flags DIRTY, ECOMPR,
IMAGIC, TOPDIR and HUGE_FILE from being inherited.
