Only two ext4_{set,clear}_bit() calls check the return value. The rest of calls ignore the return value and they can be replaced with __{set,clear}_bit_le(). This changes ext4_{set,clear}_bit() from __test_and_{set,clear}_bit_le() to __{set,clear}_bit_le() and introduces ext4_test_and_{set,clear}_bit() for the two places where old bit needs to be returned. This ext4_{set,clear}_bit() change is considered safe, because if someone uses these macros without noticing the change, new ext4_{set,clear}_bit don't have return value and causes compiler errors where the return value is used. This also removes unused ext4_find_first_zero_bit().
