Convert ext4_inode_cache to use the kmem_cache_args interface and
specify a free pointer offset.
Since ext4_inode_cache uses a constructor, the free pointer would be
placed after the object to prevent overwriting fields used by the
constructor.
However, some fields such as ->i_flags are not used by the constructor
and can safely be repurposed for the free pointer.
Specify the free pointer offset at i_flags to reduce the object size.
