ext4: Properly initialize the buffer_head state

Browse Source 
These struct buffer_heads are allocated on the stack (and hence are
initialized with stack garbage).  They are only used to call a
get_blocks() function, so that's mostly OK, but b_state must be
initialized to be 0 so we don't have any unexpected BH_* flags set by
accident, such as BH_Unwritten or BH_Delay.
