The ext2fs_link helper function link_proc does not check the value of ls->done,
which means that if the function finds multiple empty spaces that will fit the
new directory entry, it will create a directory entry in each of the spaces.
Instead of doing that, check the done value and don't do anything more if we've
already added the directory entry.
