ext4: Fix double-free of blocks with EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT
At the beginning of ext4_move_extent(), we call
ext4_discard_preallocations() to discard inode PAs of orig and donor
inodes.  But in the following case, blocks can be double freed, so
move ext4_discard_preallocations() to the end of ext4_move_extents().
1. Discard inode PAs of orig and donor inodes with
   ext4_discard_preallocations() in ext4_move_extents().
   orig : [ DATA1 ]
   donor: [ DATA2 ]
2. While data blocks are exchanging between orig and donor inodes, new
   inode PAs is created to orig by other process's block allocation.
   (Since there are semaphore gaps in ext4_move_extents().)  And new
   inode PAs is used partially (2-1).
   2-1 Create new inode PAs to orig inode
   orig : [ DATA1 | used PA1 | free PA1 ]
   donor: [ DATA2 ]
3. Donor inode which has old orig inode's blocks is deleted after
   EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT finished (3-1, 3-2).  So the block bitmap
   corresponds to old orig inode's blocks are freed.
   3-1 After EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT finished
   orig : [ DATA2 |  free PA1 ]
   donor: [ DATA1 |  used PA1 ]
   3-2 Delete donor inode
   orig : [ DATA2 |  free PA1 ]
   donor: [ FREE SPACE(DATA1) | FREE SPACE(used PA1) ]
4. The double-free of blocks is occurred, when close() is called to
   orig inode.  Because ext4_discard_preallocations() for orig inode
   frees used PA1 and free PA1, though used PA1 is already freed in 3.
   4-1 Double-free of blocks is occurred
   orig : [ DATA2 |  FREE SPACE(free PA1) ]
   donor: [ FREE SPACE(DATA1) | DOUBLE FREE(used PA1) ]
