ext4_move_extents() checks the logical block contiguousness
of original file with ext4_find_extent() and mext_next_extent().
Therefore the extent which ext4_ext_path structure indicates
must not be changed between above functions.

But in current implementation, there is no i_data_sem protection
between ext4_ext_find_extent() and mext_next_extent().  So the extent
which ext4_ext_path structure indicates may be overwritten by
delalloc.  As a result, ext4_move_extents() will exchange wrong blocks
between original and donor files.  I change the place where
acquire/release i_data_sem to solve this problem.

Moreover, I changed move_extent_per_page() to start transaction first,
and then acquire i_data_sem.  Without this change, there is a
possibility of the deadlock between mmap() and ext4_move_extents():

* NOTE: "A", "B" and "C" mean different processes

A-1: ext4_ext_move_extents() acquires i_data_sem of two inodes.

B:   do_page_fault() starts the transaction (T),
     and then tries to acquire i_data_sem.
     But process "A" is already holding it, so it is kept waiting.

C:   While "A" and "B" running, kjournald2 tries to commit transaction (T)
     but it is under updating, so kjournald2 waits for it.

A-2: Call ext4_journal_start with holding i_data_sem,
     but transaction (T) is locked.
