Our QA reported an oops in the ext4_mb_release_group_pa tracing,
and Josef Bacik pointed out that it was because we may have a
non-null but uninitialized ac_inode in the allocation context.

I can reproduce it when running xfstests with ext4 tracepoints on,
on a CONFIG_SLAB_DEBUG kernel.

We call trace_ext4_mb_release_group_pa from 2 places,
ext4_mb_discard_group_preallocations and
ext4_mb_discard_lg_preallocations

In both cases we allocate an ac as a container just for tracing (!)
and never fill in the ac_inode.  There's no reason to be assigning,
testing, or printing it as far as I can see, so just remove it from
the tracepoint.
