[PATCH v2] ext4: drop tmp inode ownership before migration cleanup

[Yichong Chen <chenyichong@uniontech.com>]

After the extent tree is transferred to the original inode,
ext4_journal_ensure_credits() can fail before tmp_inode is cleared. The
subsequent iput(tmp_inode) may then free the transferred tree.

Move the existing resets of tmp_inode's size, block count and checksum
seed before ext4_journal_ensure_credits(). This leaves the temporary inode
ready for eviction even if obtaining journal credits fails. Keep
ext4_ext_tree_init(), which marks the inode dirty, after the credits check.

Notes:
    Changes in v2:
    - Move the existing i_size, i_blocks and i_csum_seed resets before
      ext4_journal_ensure_credits() instead of adding a conditional duplicate,
      as suggested by Jan Kara.
