ext4: drop i_state_flags on architectures with 64-bit longs

We can store the dynamic inode state flags in the high bits of
EXT4_I(inode)->i_flags, and eliminate i_state_flags.  This saves 8
bytes from the size of ext4_inode_info structure, which when
multiplied by the number of the number of in the inode cache, can save
a lot of memory.
