ext4: Fix file fragmentation during large file write.

Browse Source 
The range_cyclic writeback mode uses the address_space writeback_index
as the start index for writeback.  With delayed allocation we were
updating writeback_index wrongly resulting in highly fragmented file.
This patch reduces the number of extents reduced from 4000 to 27 for a
3GB file.
