PATCH v2 1/1 GFS2: Combine func meta_prep_new with its only caller

Hi,

This patch is the same as the one I posted earlier, but I moved the setting of mh_magic inside the protection of the buffer lock, since Steve pointed out how flawed that was.

I like Steve's other idea of combining some of the other code of the callers, for example, adding the new buffer to an existing transaction, but I'll address that with a later patch.

Regards,

Bob Peterson

Before this patch function meta_prep_new was only called in one place, function gfs2_meta_new which is only a couple lines long. This patch combines them for readability.
