ext4: Add flag to files with blocks intentionally past EOF

fallocate() may potentially instantiate blocks past EOF, depending
on the flags used when it is called.

e2fsck currently has a test for blocks past i_size, and it
sometimes trips up - noticeably on xfstests 013 which runs fsstress.

This patch from Jiayang does fix it up - it (along with
e2fsprogs updates and other patches recently from Aneesh) has
survived many fsstress runs in a row.
