The old function ext4_ext_rm_idx is used only for truncate case because
it just remove last index in extent-index-block. When punching hole,
it usually needed to remove "middle" index, therefore we must move indexes
which after it forward.

(I create a file with 1 depth extent tree and punch hole in the middle of it,
the last index in index-block strangly gone, so I find out this bug)
