I think this does what I want.
I only want to ->erase() the persistant store if there has been an unlink(2)
on the file. It looks to be safe and right to do this in ->unlink()
I don't think I need any checks on i_nlink - pstore filesystem won't let you
make extra links to a file.
end_writeback(inode) looks to be somewhat overkill, all I need is to set I_CLEAR
bit in ->i_state. But nobody else does this by hand, and the extra actions in
end_writeback() look to be harmless.
