Er... It may need a better naming though. Maybe some
xfs_iunlink_release() ?

Yeah, it's better to introduce xfs_iunlink_insert_lock in this series,
will update in the next version.

Unfortunately, it's not easy to seperate (b) and (c) and it's not a real
lockless code strictly. It's just to deal with recursive lock of
pag_iunlink_mutex.

Due to some control dependency, I think it's safe to use smp_load_acquire
rather than pure READ_ONCE.

Yes.

pag_iunlink_mutex can be taken before this function, but it should be taken
after this function with recursive count added.
