[PATCH] ext4: Don't release page refs in ext4_end_bio()

[Curt Wohlgemuth <curtw@google.com>]

We can clear PageWriteback on each page when the IO
completes, but we can't release the references on the page
until we convert any uninitialized extents.

Without this patch, the use of the dioread_nolock mount
option can break buffered writes, because extents may
not be converted by the time a subsequent buffered read
comes in; if the page is not in the page cache, a read
will return zeros if the extent is still uninitialized.

I tested this with a (temporary) patch that adds a call
to msleep(1000) at the start of ext4_end_io_work(), to delay
processing of each DIO-unwritten work queue item.  With this
msleep(), a simple workload of

  fallocate
  write
  fadvise
  read

will fail without this patch, succeeds with it.
