Remove check in e2fsck which requires EA's in inodes to be sorted

This patch removes a code snippet from check_ea_in_inode() in pass1 which checks
if the EA values in the inode are sorted or not. The comments in fs/ext*/xattr.c
state that the EA values in the external EA block are sorted but those in the
inode need not be sorted. I have also attached a test image which has unsorted
EAs in the inodes. The current e2fsck wrongly clears the EAs in the inode.
