I don't understand this check.

We've already dereferenced ip several lines above to increment the
link count and get the inode number stored in ino, so the ip != NULL
is unnecessary.

We've just allocated the inode, so why would the magic number be
wrong? And why would the inode number lie in a non-existent
allocation group?

I can see from the code we are allocating and irec, inserting it
into the AVL tree and marking all the inodes in the chunk as free.
The comment should explain *why* we need to do this.

Cheers,

Dave.
