ext3/ext4: orphan list corruption due bad inode

After ext3 orphan list check has been added into ext3_destroy_inode()
(please see my previous patch) the following situation has been detected:

 EXT3-fs warning (device sda6): ext3_unlink: Deleting nonexistent file (37901290), 0
 Inode 00000101a15b7840: orphan list check failed!
 00000773 6f665f00 74616d72 00000573 65725f00 06737270 66000000 616d726f
...

First messages said that unlinked inode has i_nlink=0, then ext3_unlink()
adds this inode into orphan list.

Second message means that this inode has not been removed from orphan list.
 Inode dump has showed that i_fop = &bad_file_ops and it can be set in
make_bad_inode() only.  Then I've found that ext3_read_inode() can call
make_bad_inode() without any error/warning messages, for example in the
following case:

...
        if (inode->i_nlink == 0) {
                if (inode->i_mode == 0 ||
                    !(EXT3_SB(inode->i_sb)->s_mount_state & EXT3_ORPHAN_FS)) {
                        /* this inode is deleted */
                        brelse (bh);
                        goto bad_inode;
...

Bad inode can live some time, ext3_unlink can add it to orphan list, but
ext3_delete_inode() do not deleted this inode from orphan list.  As result
we can have orphan list corruption detected in ext3_destroy_inode().

However it is not clear for me how to fix this issue correctly.

As far as i see is_bad_inode() is called after iget() in all places
excluding ext3_lookup() and ext3_get_parent().  I believe it makes sense to
add bad inode check to these functions too and call iput if bad inode
detected.
