We should only save the flag to be cleared in ctx->mask_s_##name.

Add helper to check if flag will be changed, return 1 means it will be
set, -1 means it will be cleared, 0 means it will not be changed.

The immediate cause of this problem is that ext4_should_dioread_nolock()
function returns inconsistent values in the ext4_do_writepages() and
mpage_map_one_extent(). There are four conditions in this function that
can be changed at mount time to cause this problem. These four conditions
can be divided into two categories:
(1) journal_data and EXT4_EXTENTS_FL, which can be changed by ioctl
(2) DELALLOC and DIOREAD_NOLOCK, which can be changed by remount
The two in the first category have been fixed by commit c8585c6fcaf2
("ext4: fix races between changing inode journal mode and ext4_writepages")
and commit cb85f4d23f79 ("ext4: fix race between writepages and enabling
EXT4_EXTENTS_FL") respectively.
Two cases in the other category have not yet been fixed, and the above
issue is caused by this situation. We refer to the fix for the first
category, When DELALLOC or DIOREAD_NOLOCK is detected to be changed
during remount, we hold the s_writepages_rwsem lock to avoid racing with
ext4_writepages to trigger the problem.
Moreover, we add an EXT4_MOUNT_SHOULD_DIOREAD_NOLOCK macro to ensure that
the mount options used by ext4_should_dioread_nolock() and __ext4_remount()
are always consistent.

Yes. So do you agree that EXT4_MOUNT_SHOULD_DIOREAD_NOLOCK is not really
needed?
