Inode: Allow external list initialisation
To allow XFS to combine the XFS and linux inodes into a single structure, we need to drive inode lookup from the XFS inode cache, not the generic inode cache. This means that we need initialise a struct inode from a context outside alloc_inode() as it is no longer used by XFS. After inode allocation and initialisation, we need to add the inode to the superblock list, the in-use list, hash it and do some accounting. This all needs to be done with the inode_lock held and there are already several places in fs/inode.c that do this list manipulation. Factor out the common code, add a locking wrapper and export the function so ti can be called from XFS.
