If ENOMEM fails when the extent is splitting, we need to restore the length

In the call stack of the ext4_split_extent_at function, only in
ext4_ext_create_new_leaf will it alloc memory and change the shape of the
extent tree,even if an ENOMEM is returned at this time, the extent tree is
still self-consistent, Just restore the split extent lens in the function
ext4_split_extent_at.

ext4_split_extent_at
  ext4_ext_insert_extent
   ext4_ext_create_new_leaf
    1)ext4_ext_split
      ext4_find_extent
    2)ext4_ext_grow_indepth
      ext4_find_extent

Why have you added this? Usually we don't log any additional errors for IO
errors because the storage layer already reports it... Furthermore this
would potentialy panic the system / remount the fs RO which we also usually
don't do in case of IO errors, only in case of FS corruption.

Because failure of read_extent_tree_block indirectly leads to filesystem
inconsistency in ext4_split_extent_at, I want the filesystem to become
read-only after failure.

 - bin.
