Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] __wait_on_freeing_inode fix

This patch fixes queer behavior in __wait_on_freeing_inode().

If I_LOCK was not set it called yield(), effectively busy waiting for the
removal of the inode from the hash.  This change was introduced within
"[PATCH] eliminate inode waitqueue hashtable" Changeset 1.1938.166.16 last
october by wli.

The solution is to restore the old behavior, of unconditionally waiting on
the waitqueue.  It doesn't matter if I_LOCK is not set initally, the task
will go to sleep, and wake up when wake_up_inode() is called from
generic_delete_inode() after removing the inode from the hash chain.

Comment is also updated to better reflect current behavior.

This condition is very hard to trigger normally (simultaneous clear_inode()
with iget()) so probably only heavy stress testing can reveal any change of
behavior.
