ext4: don't check io->flag when setting EXT4_STATE_DIO_UNWRITTEN inode state

When we want to convert the unitialized extent in direct write, we can
either do it in ext4_end_io_nolock(AIO case) or in
ext4_ext_direct_IO(non AIO case) and EXT4_I(inode)->cur_aio_dio is a
guard for ext4_ext_map_blocks to find the right case.  In e9e3bcecf,
we mistakenly change it by:

- if (io)
+ if (io && !(io->flag & EXT4_IO_END_UNWRITTEN)) {
  io->flag = EXT4_IO_END_UNWRITTEN;
- else
+ atomic_inc(&EXT4_I(inode)->i_aiodio_unwritten);
+ } else
  ext4_set_inode_state(inode,
       EXT4_STATE_DIO_UNWRITTEN);

So now if we map 2 blocks, and the first one set the
EXT_IO_END_UNWRITTEN, the 2nd mapping will set inode state because of
the check for the flag. This is wrong.
