[PATCH] udf: initialize parts of inode earlier in create

I saw an oops down this path when trying to create a new file on a UDF
filesystem which was internally marked as readonly, but mounted rw:

udf_create
udf_new_inode
new_inode
alloc_inode
udf_alloc_inode
udf_new_block
returns EIO due to readonlyness
iput (on error)
udf_put_inode
udf_discard_prealloc
udf_next_aext
udf_current_aext
udf_get_fileshortad
OOPS

the udf_discard_prealloc() path was examining uninitialized fields of the
udf inode.

udf_discard_prealloc() already has this code to short-circuit the discard
path if no extents are preallocated:

if (UDF_I_ALLOCTYPE(inode) == ICBTAG_FLAG_AD_IN_ICB ||
inode->i_size == UDF_I_LENEXTENTS(inode))
{
return;
}

so if we initialize UDF_I_LENEXTENTS(inode) = 0 earlier in udf_new_inode,
we won't try to free the (not) preallocated blocks, since this will match
the i_size = 0 set when the inode was initialized.
