FWIW, this probably needs a documentation update to mention that
inodes should always be allocated through alloc_inode_sb() rather
than kmem_cache_alloc(). It's a "** mandatory **" requirement as per
Documentation/filesytems/porting.rst.

This really needs a kerneldoc comment explaining that it must be
used for allocating inodes to set up the inode reclaim context
correctly....
/me wonders if we should add a BUG_ON() check in inode_init_always()
to capture filesystems that don't call through
kmem_cache_alloc_lru() for inodes?
Cheers,
Dave.
