xfs: fix inode lookup race

Browse Source 
When we get concurrent lookups of the same inode that is not in the
per-AG inode cache, there is a race condition that triggers warnings
in unlock_new_inode() indicating that we are initialising an inode
that isn't in a the correct state for a new inode.

When we do an inode lookup via a file handle or a bulkstat, we don't
serialise lookups at a higher level through the dentry cache (i.e.
pathless lookup), and so we can get concurrent lookups of the same
inode.

The race condition is between the insertion of the inode into the
cache in the case of a cache miss and a concurrently lookup:

    radix_tree_insert()
				rcu_read_lock
				radix_tree_lookup
				lock inode flags
				XFS_INEW not set
				igrab()
				unlock inode flags
				rcu_read_unlock
				use uninitialised inode
				.....
    lock inode flags
    set XFS_INEW
    unlock inode flags
    unlock radix tree
  xfs_setup_inode()
    inode flags = I_NEW
    unlock_new_inode()
      WARNING as inode flags != I_NEW

This can lead to inode corruption, inode list corruption, etc, and
is generally a bad thing to occur.

Fix this by setting XFS_INEW before inserting the inode into the
radix tree. This will ensure any concurrent lookup will find the new
inode with XFS_INEW set and that forces the lookup to wait until the
XFS_INEW flag is removed before allowing the lookup to succeed.
