I just want to call out one thing here in case it isn't noticed on
review... the safety of this is something I was curious about.
Specifically, note that I've removed the inode locking from
xfs_inactive(), which previously covered xfs_inactive_symlink() (for
xfs_idata_realloc()), down into xfs_inactive_symlink_rmt().
My assumption was that this is currently ok since at this point we have
an inode with di_nlink == 0. If that's not accurate or not expected to
remain so after O_TMPFILE related work, I suppose I could pull the
locking back up into xfs_inactive_symlink().
