Correct. The lip->li_buf pointer is now owned by the inode log item
for inodes, it's not a field that exists purely for buffer error
handling. Any time an inode is attached to the buffer, lip->li_buf
points to the buffer, and hence we no longer need to attach the
buffer to the log item when IO fails to be able to trigger retries.
