xfs: remove xfs_fs_evict_inode()

Browse Source 
Joe Lawrence reported a list_add corruption with 4.6-rc1 when
testing some custom md administration code that made it's own
block device nodes for the md array. The simple test loop of:

for i in {0..100}; do
	mknod --mode=0600 $tmp/tmp_node b $MAJOR $MINOR
	mdadm --detail --export $tmp/tmp_node > /dev/null
	rm -f $tmp/tmp_node
done


Would produce this warning in bd_acquire() when mdadm opened the
device node:

list_add double add: new=ffff88043831c7b8, prev=ffff8804380287d8, next=ffff88043831c7b8.

And then produce this from bd_forget from kdevtmpfs evicting a block
dev inode:

list_del corruption. prev->next should be ffff8800bb83eb10, but was ffff88043831c7b8

This is a regression caused by commit c19b3b05 ("xfs: mode di_mode
to vfs inode"). The issue is that xfs_inactive() frees the
unlinked inode, and the above commit meant that this freeing zeroed
the mode in the struct inode. The problem is that after evict() has
called ->evict_inode, it expects the i_mode to be intact so that it
can call bd_forget() or cd_forget() to drop the reference to the
block device inode attached to the XFS inode.

In reality, the only thing we do in xfs_fs_evict_inode() that is not
generic is call xfs_inactive(). We can move the xfs_inactive() call
to xfs_fs_destroy_inode() without any problems at all, and this
will leave the VFS inode intact until it is completely done with it.

So, remove xfs_fs_evict_inode(), and do the work it used to do in
->destroy_inode instead.
