ext4: add EA_INODE checking to ext4_iget()

Browse source

commit b3e6bcb945 upstream.

Add a new flag, EXT4_IGET_EA_INODE which indicates whether the inode
is expected to have the EA_INODE flag or not.  If the flag is not
set/clear as expected, then fail the iget() operation and mark the
file system as corrupted.

This commit also makes the ext4_iget() always perform the
is_bad_inode() check even when the inode is already inode cache.  This
allows us to remove the is_bad_inode() check from the callers of
ext4_iget() in the ea_inode code.
