xfs_repair doesn't ever check an inode's CRC, so it never repairs
them. If the root inode or realtime inodes have bad crcs, the
fs won't even mount and can't be fixed (without using xfs_db).
It's fairly straightforward to just test the inode CRC before
we do any other checking or modification of the inode, once we
get past the "verify only" phase of process_dinode_int();
just mark it dirty if it's wrong and needs to be re-written.

forgive the gratuitous big honkin' comment line, but
process_dinode_int is so long, I thought the visual delimiter was
useful. ;)
