We don't need a new shutdown tag. We can consider this in-memory
corruption because we detected it in memory before it went to disk
(SHUTDOWN_CORRUPT_INCORE) or even on-disk corruption because the
reference count on disk is likely wrong at this point......

I'd kind of prefer that drop_nlink() be made to return an error on
underrun - if it's important enough to drop a warning in the log and
potentially panic the kernel, it's important enough to tell the
filesystem an underrun has occurred.  But that opens a whole new can
of worms, so I think this will be fine.

Note that we don't actually need a call to shut the filesystem down.
Simply returning -EFSCORRUPTED will result in the filesystem being
shut down if the transaction is dirty when it gets cancelled due to
the droplink error.

Cheers,

Dave.
