If ext4 is using small on-disk inodes, then it may not be able to store fine grained timestamps. It also can't store the i_crtime at all in that case since that fully lives in the extended part of the inode. 979492850abd got the EXT4_EINODE_{GET,SET}_XTIME macros wrong, and would still store the tv_sec field of the i_crtime into the raw_inode, even when they were small, corrupting adjacent memory. This fixes those macros to skip setting anything in the raw_inode if the tv_sec field doesn't fit, and to properly return a {0,0} timestamp when the raw_inode doesn't support it.
