ext4: Initialize fsync transaction ids in ext4_new_inode()
When allocating a new inode, we need to make sure i_sync_tid and i_datasync_tid are initialized. Otherwise, one or both of these two values could be left initialized to zero, which could potentially result in BUG_ON in jbd2_journal_commit_transaction. (This could happen by having journal->commit_request getting set to zero, which could wake up the kjournald process even though there is no running transaction, which then causes a BUG_ON via the J_ASSERT(j_ruinning_transaction != NULL) statement.
