When we want to tear down an inode that lost the add to the cache race
in XFS we must not call into ->destroy_inode because that would delete
the inode that won the race from the inode cache radix tree.
This patch provides the __destroy_inode helper needed to fix this,
the actual fix will be in th next patch.
