fs: Ignore inode metadata buffers in inode_lru_isolate()
There are only a few filesystems that use generic tracking of inode
metadata buffer heads. As such the logic to reclaim tracked metadata
buffer heads in inode_lru_isolate() doesn't bring a benefit big enough
to justify intertwining of inode reclaim and metadata buffer head
tracking. Just treat tracked metadata buffer heads as any other metadata
filesystem has to properly clean up on inode eviction and stop handling
it in inode_lru_isolate(). As a result filesystems using generic
tracking of metadata buffer heads may now see dirty metadata buffers in
their .evict methods more often which can slow down inode reclaim but
given these filesystems aren't used in performance demanding setups we
should be fine.
