Revert "ext4: fix delayed allocation bug in ext4_clu_mapped for bigalloc + inline"

This reverts commit 1ed1eef0 which is
commit 131294c35ed6f777bd4e79d42af13b5c41bf2775 upstream.

	I recommend not backporting this patch or the other three
	patches apparently intended to support it to 4.19 stable.  All
	these patches are related to ext4's bigalloc feature, which was
	experimental as of 4.19 (expressly noted by contemporary
	versions of e2fsprogs) and also suffered from a number of bugs.
	A significant number of additional patches that were applied to
	5.X kernels over time would have to be backported to 4.19 for
	the patch below to function correctly. It's really not worth
	doing that given bigalloc's experimental status as of 4.19 and
	the very rare combination of the bigalloc and inline features.
