    vfs: fix race between evice_inodes() and find_inode()&iput()

    Hi, all

    Recently I noticed a bug[1] in btrfs, after digged it into
    and I believe it'a race in vfs.

    Let's assume there's a inode (ie ino 261) with i_count 1 is
    called by iput(), and there's a concurrent thread calling
    generic_shutdown_super().

    cpu0:                              cpu1:
    iput() // i_count is 1
      ->spin_lock(inode)
      ->dec i_count to 0
      ->iput_final()                    generic_shutdown_super()
        ->__inode_add_lru()               ->evict_inodes()
          // cause some reason[2]           ->if (atomic_read(inode->i_count)) continue;
          // return before                  // inode 261 passed the above check
          // list_lru_add_obj()             // and then schedule out
       ->spin_unlock()
    // note here: the inode 261
    // was still at sb list and hash list,
    // and I_FREEING|I_WILL_FREE was not been set

    btrfs_iget()
      // after some function calls
      ->find_inode()
        // found the above inode 261
        ->spin_lock(inode)
       // check I_FREEING|I_WILL_FREE
       // and passed
          ->__iget()
        ->spin_unlock(inode)                // schedule back
                                            ->spin_lock(inode)
                                            // check (I_NEW|I_FREEING|I_WILL_FREE) flags,
                                            // passed and set I_FREEING
    iput()                                  ->spin_unlock(inode)
      ->spin_lock(inode)                      ->evict()
      // dec i_count to 0
      ->iput_final()
        ->spin_unlock()
        ->evict()

    Now, we have two threads simultaneously evicting
    the same inode, which may trigger the BUG(inode->i_state & I_CLEAR)
    statement both within clear_inode() and iput().

    To fix the bug, recheck the inode->i_count after holding i_lock.
    Because in the most scenarios, the first check is valid, and
    the overhead of spin_lock() can be reduced.

    If there is any misunderstanding, please let me know, thanks.

    [2]: The reason might be 1. SB_ACTIVE was removed or 2. mapping_shrinkable()
    return false when I reproduced the bug.
