commit acd6ad83517639e8f09a8c5525b1dccd81cd2a10 upstream.

When insert_inode_locked() fails in ext4_new_inode() it most likely means inode
bitmap got corrupted and we allocated again inode which is already in use. Also
doing unlock_new_inode() during error recovery is wrong since the inode does
not have I_NEW set. Fix the problem by jumping to fail: (instead of fail_drop:)
which declares filesystem error and does not call unlock_new_inode().
