Ok, so you are doing this because you changed the function to pass
in an agino rather than a bucket index from the caller context. So
now you have to look up a structure to determine what the caller
context was to determine what the bucket index we need to use is.

Seems like we probably should have kept passing in the bucket index
from the caller because that's where the knowledge of what bucket we
need to update comes from?

And in that case, the higher level code should be checking for the
log recovery case when selecting the bucket, not hiding it deep in
the guts of the code here....

This looks like a change of behaviour - it no longer checks against
the inode we are about to add/remove from the list, but instead
checks that old inode is what we found on the list. We're not
concerned that what we found on the list matches what the caller
found on the list and passed us - we're concerned about doing a
double add/remove of the current inode...

i.e. this is the point where we know we need to remove from the head
of the unlinked list and all the bucket selection and verification
should probably remain here...
