Do not rely on buffer head's uptodate flag to initialize
uninitialized bitmap blocks.

This patch makes sure to initialize uninited bitmap blocks.
These are two test cases where bugs appear because of uninited blocks :
1- This test case lead to uninited block bitmap and an error message
from the mballocator during the second dd.
dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/md0 bs=1M count=300
mkfs.ext4 -t ext4dev /dev/md0 1G
mount -t ext4dev /dev/md0 /mnt/test
resize2fs /dev/md0 2G
dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/test/dummy bs=1M count=1500
Note that the first dd is to make sure we have random garbage in the
uninited blocks. If not, you could miss the issue depending what was in
those blocks before running mkfs.
2- This test case lead to uninited inode bitmap blocks, making it
impossible to use all the inodes of the fs.
dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/md0 bs=1M count=20
mkfs.ext4 -t ext4dev /dev/md0 10M
mount -t ext4dev /dev/md0 /mnt/test
resize2fs /dev/md0 20M
for i in $(seq 1 3800); do touch /mnt/test/file${i} 2>&1; done
