ext4: fix ext4_end_io_dio() racing against fsync()

commit b5a7e97039a80fae673ccc115ce595d5b88fb4ee upstream.

We need to make sure iocb->private is cleared *before* we put the
io_end structure on i_completed_io_list.  Otherwise fsync() could
potentially run on another CPU and free the iocb structure out from
under us.
