I agree with Willy. I think inode_strip_sgid() is better. It'll be in
good company as <object>_<verb>_<what?> is pretty common:

inode_update_atime()
inode_init_once()
inode_init_owner()
inode_init_early()
inode_add_lru()
inode_needs_sync()
inode_set_flags()

Maybe mode_remove_sgid() is even better because it makes it clear that
the change happens to @mode and not @dir. But I'm fine with
inode_strip_sgid() or inode_remove_sgid() too.
