The ext4 code path to bundle multiple pages for writeback in
ext4_bio_write_page() had a bug: we should be clearing buffer head dirty
flags before we submit the bio, not in the completion routine.
Also don't deference the bio in ext4_end_bio() after the bio_put() call.
(I also added a blank line in ext4_bio_write_page(), 'cause my eyes
constantly confused the complex 'for' conditions from the first statement
in the block.)
