ext4: fix warning in ext4_dio_write_end_io()
The syzbot has reported that it can hit the warning in ext4_dio_write_end_io() because i_size < i_disksize. Indeed the reproducer creates a race between DIO IO completion and truncate expanding the file and thus ext4_dio_write_end_io() sees an inconsistent inode state where i_disksize is already updated but i_size is not updated yet. Since we are careful when setting up DIO write and consider it extending (and thus performing the IO synchronously with i_rwsem held exclusively) whenever it goes past either of i_size or i_disksize, we can use the same test during IO completion without risking entering ext4_handle_inode_extension() without i_rwsem held. This way we make it obvious both i_size and i_disksize are large enough when we report DIO completion without relying on unreliable WARN_ON.
