Ocfs2: Handle deletion of reflinked oprhan inodes correctly.
The rule is that all inodes in the orphan dir have ORPHANED_FL,
otherwise we treated it as an ERROR. This rule works well except
for some rare cases of reflink operation:
http://oss.oracle.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1215
The problem is caused by how reflink and our orphan_scan thread
interact.
* The orphan scan pulls the orphans into a queue first, then runs the
queue at a later time. We only hold the orphan_dir's lock
during scanning.
* Reflink create a oprhaned target in orphan_dir as its first step.
It removes the target and clears the flag as the final step.
These two steps take the orphan_dir's lock, but it is not held for
the duration.
Based on the above semantics, a reflink inode can be moved out of the
orphan dir and have its ORPHANED_FL cleared before the queue of orphans
is run. This leads to a ERROR in ocfs2_query_wipde_inode().
This patch teaches ocfs2_query_wipe_inode() to detect previously
orphaned reflink targets. If a reflink fails or a crash occurs during
the relfink operation, the inode will retain ORPHANED_FL and will be
properly wiped.
