Current ext4 will call ext4_ext_convert_to_initialized() to split and
initialize an unwritten extent if someone write something to it. It may
also zeroout the nearby blocks and expand the split extent if the
allocated extent is fully inside i_size or new_size. But it may lead to
inode inconsistency when system crash or the power fails.
Consider the following case:
- Create an empty file and buffer write from block A to D (with delay
allocate). It will update the i_size to D.
- Zero range from part of block B to D. It will allocate an unwritten
extent from B to D.
- The write back worker write block B and initialize the unwritten
extent from B to D, and then update the i_disksize to B.
- System crash.
- Remount and fsck complain about the extent size exceeds the inode
size.
This patch add checking i_disksize and chose the small one between
i_size to make sure it's safe to convert extent to initialized.

This problem can reproduce by xfstests generic/482 with fsstress seed
1544025012.
Fsck output:
fsck from util-linux 2.23.2

Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks, and sizes
Inode 15, end of extent exceeds allowed value
(logical block 294, physical block 34028, len 3)
Clear? no
Inode 15, i_blocks is 3784, should be 3760. Fix? no
Pass 2: Checking directory structure
Pass 3: Checking directory connectivity
Pass 4: Checking reference counts
Pass 5: Checking group summary information
Block bitmap differences: -(34028--34030)
Fix? no
The sizeof inode 15 is 0x127000, and the extent tree is:
