Subject: [PATCH RFC] ext4:fix warning in mark_buffer_dirty as IO error when mount with errors=continue

We test with following step:
1. dmsetup create dust1 --table '0 2097152 dust /dev/sdc 0 4096'
2. mount /dev/mapper/dust1 /home/test
3. dmsetup message dust1 0 addbadblock 0 10
4. cd /home/test
5. echo "XXXXXXX" > t
6. wait a moment we got following warning:
[ 80.654487] end_buffer_async_write: bh=0xffff88842f18bdd0

If super block write back with IO error, then will call clear_buffer_uptodate
clear uptodate flag. But there is no chance to set buffer uptodate again.
So call set_buffer_uptodate before call jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata to make sure
that buffer is uptodate when buffer is jbddirty.
