iget_locked et.al.: make sure we don't return bad inodes
If one thread does iget_locked(), proceeds to try and set the new inode up and fails, inode will be unhashed and dropped. However, another thread doing ilookup/iget_locked in the middle of that would end up finding a half-set-up inode, grabbing a reference, waiting for it to come unlocked and getting the resulting bad inode. It's a race (if that ilookup had been called just after the failure of setup attempt it wouldn't have found the sucker at all), particularly unpleasant in cases when failure is transient/caller-dependent/etc. While it can be dealt with in the callers, there's no reason not to handle it in fs/inode.c primitives, especially since the cost is trivial.
