ext4: fail ext4_iget if special inode unallocated

In ext4_fill_super(), EXT4_ORPHAN_FS flag is cleared after
ext4_orphan_cleanup() is executed. Therefore, when __ext4_iget() is
called to get an inode whose i_nlink is 0 when the flag exists, no error
is returned. If the inode is a special inode, a null pointer dereference
may occur. If the value of i_nlink is 0 for any inodes (except boot loader
inodes) got by using the EXT4_IGET_SPECIAL flag, the current file system
is corrupted. Therefore, make the ext4_iget() function return an error if
it gets such an abnormal special inode.
