xfs: only take the ILOCK in xfs_reclaim_inode()

Browse Source 
At the end of xfs_reclaim_inode(), the inode is locked in order to
we wait for a possible concurrent lookup to complete before the
inode is freed.  This synchronization step was taking both the ILOCK
and the IOLOCK, but the latter was causing lockdep to produce
reports of the possibility of deadlock.

It turns out that there's no need to acquire the IOLOCK at this
point anyway.  It may have been required in some earlier version of
the code, but there should be no need to take the IOLOCK in
xfs_iget(), so there's no (longer) any need to get it here for
synchronization.  Add an assertion in xfs_iget() as a reminder
of this assumption.

Dave Chinner diagnosed this on IRC, and Christoph Hellwig suggested
no longer including the IOLOCK.  I just put together the patch.
