vfs: fix inode_init_always calling convention

Currently inode_init_always calls into ->destroy_inode if the additional
initialization fails.  That's not only counter-intuitive because
inode_init_always did not allocate the inode structure, but in case of
XFS it's actively harmful as ->destroy_inode might delete the inode from
a radix-tree that has never been added.  This in turn might end up
deleting the inode for the same inum that has been instanciated by
another process and cause lots of cause subtile problems.

Also in the case of re-initializing a reclaimable inode in XFS it would
free an inode we still want to keep alive.
