ext4: Fix duplicate entries returned from getdents() system call

(cherry picked from commit 3c37fc86d20fe35be656f070997d62f75c2e4874)

Fix a regression caused by commit d0156417, "ext4: fix ext4_dx_readdir
hash collision handling", where deleting files in a large directory
(requiring more than one getdents system call), results in some
filenames being returned twice.  This was caused by a failure to
update info->curr_hash and info->curr_minor_hash, so that if the
directory had gotten modified since the last getdents() system call
(as would be the case if the user is running "rm -r" or "git clean"),
a directory entry would get returned twice to the userspace.
