Correct me if I'm wrong but I think we will never try to clear bitmap
bits for a BLOCK_UNINIT BG right. Maybe if that's the case we can add a
WARN_ON as follows in ext4_mb_mark_group_bb():

if (ext4_has_group_desc_csum(sb) &&
(gdp->bg_flags & cpu_to_le16(EXT4_BG_BLOCK_UNINIT))) {

WARN_ON(mc->state == 0);
...

}

Other than that the patch looks good, feel free to add:
