This computes both the _lo and _hi parts of the checksum and overwrites what is in the inode...

This only saves the _lo part of the checksum before computing the new
checksum (which overwrites both _lo and _hi fields), so the _hi part
of the checksum is never properly validated below.

This should be moved up to save _hi before calling ext4_inode_csum().

What is the point of storing the returned crc into raw->i_checksum_lo
and raw->i_checksum_hi, if this is done internal to ext4_inode_csum()
already?
Also, would it be better to call the temporary variable "csum" instead
of "crc", since we may use something other than crc32c as the hash
function in the future.
