ext4: Use the ext4_ext_actual_len() helper function

ext4 uses the high bit of the extent length to encode whether the extent
is intialized or not. The helper function ext4_ext_get_actual_len should
be used to get the actual length of the extent.

This addresses the kernel bug documented here:
     http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9732
