xfs: fix freeing of inodes not yet added to the inode cache
When freeing an inode that lost race getting added to the inode cache we
must not call into ->destroy_inode, because that would delete the inode
that won the race from the inode cache radix tree.
This patch uses splits a new xfs_inode_free helper out of xfs_ireclaim
and uses that plus __destroy_inode to make sure we really only free
the memory allocted for the inode that lost the race, and not mess with
the inode cache state.
