nilfs2: fix use-after-free bug of struct nilfs_root
commit d325dc6e upstream. If the beginning of the inode bitmap area is corrupted on disk, an inode with the same inode number as the root inode can be allocated and fail soon after. In this case, the subsequent call to nilfs_clear_inode() on that bogus root inode will wrongly decrement the reference counter of struct nilfs_root, and this will erroneously free struct nilfs_root, causing kernel oopses. This fixes the problem by changing nilfs_new_inode() to skip reserved inode numbers while repairing the inode bitmap.
