So I tried out sparse on my patch vs fs-next and found it emits the
same warnings.

fs/inode.c:846:17: warning: context imbalance in 'inode_lru_isolate' -
unexpected unlock
fs/inode.c:901:9: warning: context imbalance in 'find_inode' -
different lock contexts for basic block
fs/inode.c:932:9: warning: context imbalance in 'find_inode_fast' -
different lock contexts for basic block
fs/inode.c:1621:5: warning: context imbalance in 'insert_inode_locked'
- wrong count at exit
fs/inode.c:1739:20: warning: context imbalance in 'iput_final' -
unexpected unlock
fs/inode.c:1753:6: warning: context imbalance in 'iput' - wrong count at exit
fs/inode.c:2238:13: warning: context imbalance in
'__wait_on_freeing_inode' - unexpected unlock

The patch does not make things *worse*, so I don't think messing with
the code is warranted here.

I agree, but this is me just copying and modifying an existing line.

include/linux/fs.h is chock full of extern-prefixed func declarations,
on top of that some name the arguments while the rest does not.

Someone(tm) should definitely clean it up, but I'm not interested in
bikeshedding about it.
