This patch also needs to fix all of the regression tests that will
fail because the inode numbers are different. Otherwise "make check"
will fail.

I'm not sure it is worthwhile to mention "currently 10 is enough",
since this should be updated every time some new inode is reserved,
but it will likely be forgotten. I don't think users really care
about this in the end.
