    ext4: fix i_disksize exceeding i_size problem in paritally written case
    
    [ Upstream commit 1dedde690303c05ef732b7c5c8356fdf60a4ade3 ]
    
    It is possible for i_disksize can exceed i_size, triggering a warning.
    
    generic_perform_write
     copied = iov_iter_copy_from_user_atomic(len) // copied < len
     ext4_da_write_end
     | ext4_update_i_disksize
     |  new_i_size = pos + copied;
     |  WRITE_ONCE(EXT4_I(inode)->i_disksize, newsize) // update i_disksize
     | generic_write_end
     |  copied = block_write_end(copied, len) // copied = 0
     |   if (unlikely(copied < len))
     |    if (!PageUptodate(page))
     |     copied = 0;
     |  if (pos + copied > inode->i_size) // return false
     if (unlikely(copied == 0))
      goto again;
     if (unlikely(iov_iter_fault_in_readable(i, bytes))) {
      status = -EFAULT;
      break;
     }
    
    We get i_disksize greater than i_size here, which could trigger WARNING
    check 'i_size_read(inode) < EXT4_I(inode)->i_disksize' while doing dio:
    
    ext4_dio_write_iter
     iomap_dio_rw
      __iomap_dio_rw // return err, length is not aligned to 512
     ext4_handle_inode_extension
      WARN_ON_ONCE(i_size_read(inode) < EXT4_I(inode)->i_disksize) // Oops
    
     WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 2609 at fs/ext4/file.c:319
     CPU: 2 PID: 2609 Comm: aa Not tainted 6.3.0-rc2
     RIP: 0010:ext4_file_write_iter+0xbc7
     Call Trace:
      vfs_write+0x3b1
      ksys_write+0x77
      do_syscall_64+0x39
    
    Fix it by updating 'copied' value before updating i_disksize just like
    ext4_write_inline_data_end() does.
