    ext4: fix bug_on in ext4_writepages

    we got issue as follows:

    It may happen as follows:

          ext4_buffered_write_iter

            ext4_convert_inline_data

          filemap_fdatawrite_wbc
            do_writepages

                  BUG_ON(ext4_test_inode_state(inode, EXT4_STATE_MAY_INLINE_DATA))

    The root cause of this issue is we destory inline data until call
    ext4_writepages under delay allocation mode.  But there maybe already
    convert from inline to extent.  To solve this issue, we call
    filemap_flush first..
