ext4: check fast symlink for ea_inode correctly
The check for a fast symlink in the presence of only an
external xattr inode is incorrect.  If a fast symlink does
not have an xattr block (i_file_acl == 0), but does have
an external xattr inode that increases inode i_blocks, then
the check for a fast symlink will incorrectly fail and
__ext4_iget()->ext4_ind_check_inode() will report the inode
is corrupt when it "validates" i_data[] on the next read:
    # ln -s foo /mnt/tmp/bar
    # setfattr -h -n trusted.test \
               -v "$(yes | head -n 4000)" /mnt/tmp/bar
    # umount /mnt/tmp
    # mount /mnt/tmp
    # ls -l /mnt/tmp
    ls: cannot access '/mnt/tmp/bar': Structure needs cleaning
    total 4
     ? l?????????? ? ?    ?        ?            ? bar
    # dmesg | tail -1
    EXT4-fs error (device dm-8): __ext4_iget:5098:
        inode #24578: block 7303014: comm ls: invalid block
(note that "block 7303014" = 0x6f6f66 = "foo" in LE order).
ext4_inode_is_fast_symlink() should check the superblock
EXT4_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_EA_INODE feature flag, not the inode
EXT4_EA_INODE_FL, since the latter is only set on the xattr
inode itself, and not on the inode that uses this xattr.
