ext4: Fix block zeroing when punching holes in indirect block files
commit 77ea2a4b upstream. free_holes_block() passed local variable as a block pointer to ext4_clear_blocks(). Thus ext4_clear_blocks() zeroed out this local variable instead of proper place in inode / indirect block. We later zero out proper place in inode / indirect block but don't dirty the inode / buffer again which can lead to subtle issues (some changes e.g. to inode can be lost).
