This patch had very minimal testing. I am sending this to get the
feedback on the approach. The skip_index section in the below patch
is ugly. Any suggestion to improve ?
NOTE: ext4_ext_convert_to_initialized error path have some BUGs. It
doesn't reset the extent information in case of error. But that is
another patch.

Subject: [PATCH] ext4: Convert uninitialized extent to initialized extent in case of file system full
A write to prealloc area cause the split of unititalized extent into a initialized
and uninitialized extent. If we don't have space to add new extent information instead
of returning error convert the existing uninitialized extent to initialized one. We
need to zero out the blocks corresponding to the extent to prevent wrong data reaching
userspace.
