Unsafe. Has to avoid I_FREEING|I_WILL_FREE (see warnings at start of
writeback_single_inode()).

Also, if you do this after clearing the I_SYNC flag, you can use
exactly the same logic as iput_final(). A helper function could be
used for both cases at that point, and....

.... the inode lru list function can stay static.
