The above race and warning didn't turn up because writeback_inodes() holds
the s_umount lock, so generic_forget_inode() finds MS_ACTIVE and returns
early. But we are not sure the UBIFS calls and future callers will guarantee
that. So skip I_WILL_FREE inodes for the sake of safety.

The inode states are a bit vague for me, but vs. UBIFS - feel
free to ask questions.
