Should this be:

?

This introduceѕ a non-owner unlock of an exclusively held rwsem.  As-is
this will make lockdep very unhappy.  We have a non-owner unlock version
of up_read, but not of up_write currently.  I'm also not sure if those
are allowed from RCU callback, which IIRC can run from softirq context.

That being said this scheme of only unlocking the inode in the rcu free
callback makes totaly sense to me, so I wish we can accomodate it
somehow.

This change looks wrong to me, or did I miss something?  We now
clear all bits that are not XFS_I_NEW and XFS_IRECLAIM, which
already is set in ~XFS_INEW.  So if that was the intent just:

		ip->i_flags &= ~XFS_INEW;

would do it.

This looks spurious vs the rest of the patch.

This unlock out of order.  Should be harmless, but also pointless.

I think this code would be a lot easier to understand if we fatored
this inner loop into a new helper.  Untested patch that does, and
also removes a no incorrect comment below:
