ocfs2: fix a tiny case that inode can not removed



When running dirop_fileop_racer we found a case that inode
can not removed.

Two nodes, say Node A and Node B, mount the same ocfs2 volume.  Create
two dirs /race/1/ and /race/2/ in the filesystem.

  Node A                            Node B
  rm -r /race/2/
                                    mv /race/1/ /race/2/
  call ocfs2_unlink(), get
  the EX mode of /race/2/
                                    wait for B unlock /race/2/
  decrease i_nlink of /race/2/ to 0,
  and add inode of /race/2/ into
  orphan dir, unlock /race/2/
                                    got EX mode of /race/2/. because
                                    /race/1/ is dir, so inc i_nlink
                                    of /race/2/ and update into disk,
                                    unlock /race/2/
  because i_nlink of /race/2/
  is not zero, this inode will
  always remain in orphan dir

This patch fixes this case by test whether i_nlink of new dir is zero.
