[RFC PATCH] ext2: drop cached block when detecting corruption

[Chengguang Xu <cgxu519@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Currently ext2 uses mdcache for deduplication of extended
attribution blocks. However, there is lack of handling for
corrupted blocks, so newly created EAs may still links to
corrupted blocks. This patch tries to drop cached block
when detecting corruption to mitigate the effect.
