ext4: fix RENAME_WHITEOUT handling for inline directories
A significant number of xfstests can cause ext4 to log one or more warning messages when they are run on a test file system where the inline_data feature has been enabled. An example: "EXT4-fs warning (device vdc): ext4_dirblock_csum_set:425: inode #16385: comm fsstress: No space for directory leaf checksum. Please run e2fsck -D." The xfstests include: ext4/057, 058, and 307; generic/013, 051, 068, 070, 076, 078, 083, 232, 269, 270, 390, 461, 475, 476, 482, 579, 585, 589, 626, 631, and 650. In this situation, the warning message indicates a bug in the code that performs the RENAME_WHITEOUT operation on a directory entry that has been stored inline. It doesn't detect that the directory is stored inline, and incorrectly attempts to compute a dirent block checksum on the whiteout inode when creating it. This attempt fails as a result of the integrity checking in get_dirent_tail (usually due to a failure to match the EXT4_FT_DIR_CSUM magic cookie), and the warning message is then emitted. Fix this by simply collecting the inlined data state at the time the search for the source directory entry is performed. Existing code handles the rest, and this is sufficient to eliminate all spurious warning messages produced by the tests above. Go one step further and do the same in the code that resets the source directory entry in the event of failure. The inlined state should be present in the "old" struct, but given the possibility of a race there's no harm in taking a conservative approach and getting that information again since the directory entry is being reread anyway.
