ext4: fix ZERO_RANGE bug hidden by flag aliasing
We accidently aliased EXT4_EX_NOCACHE and EXT4_GET_CONVERT_UNWRITTEN falgs, which apparently was hiding a bug that was unmasked when this flag aliasing issue was addressed (see the subsequent commit). The reproduction case was: fsx -N 10000 -l 500000 -r 4096 -t 4096 -w 4096 -Z -R -W /vdb/junk ... which would cause fsx to report corruption in the data file. The fix we have is a bit of an overkill, but I'd much rather be conservative for now, and we can optimize ZERO_RANGE_FL handling later. The fact that we need to zap the extent_status cache for the inode is unfortunate, but correctness is far more important than performance.
