ext4: Fix hole punching for files with indirect blocks



Hole punching code for files with indirect blocks wrongly computed
number of blocks which need to be cleared when traversing the indirect
block tree. That could result in punching more blocks than actually
requested and thus effectively cause a data loss. For example:

fallocate -n -p 10240000 4096

will punch the range 10240000 - 12632064 instead of the range 1024000 -
10244096. Fix the calculation.
