ext4: Use bforget() in no journal mode for ext4_journal_{forget,revoke}()
When ext4 is using a journal, a metadata block which is deallocated must be passed into the journal layer so it can be dropped from the current transaction and/or revoked. This is done by calling the functions ext4_journal_forget() and ext4_journal_revoke(), which call jbd2_journal_forget(), and jbd2_journal_revoke(), respectively. Since the jbd2_journal_forget() and jbd2_journal_revoke() call bforget(), if ext4 is not using a journal, ext4_journal_forget() and ext4_journal_revoke() must call bforget() to avoid a dirty metadata block overwriting a block after it has been reallocated and reused for another inode's data block.
