Nice.

Going after the iflock nowait first seems a little silly, but I'm
guessing that you're trying to avoid touching the zone wait_table in
bit_waitqueue if you can avoid it, along with the rest of the overhead
related to seeting up the wait queue in __xfs_iflock.

I was going to suggest this:
spin_lock(&ip->i_flags_lock);
ip->i_flags &= ~XFS_IFLOCK;
wake_up_bit(...
spin_unlock(&ip->i_flags_lock);
After some study I believe what you have is ok:
Say this is process A. If process B got the lock after A cleared IFLOCK
and before A wake_up_bit wakes process C. C will just go back to sleep
in __xfs_iflock until B calls xfs_ifunlock to wake C again.
Looks good.
