reiserfs: Force inode evictions before umount to avoid crash
commit a9e36da655e54545c3289b2a0700b5c443de0edd upstream. This patch fixes a crash in reiserfs_delete_xattrs during umount. When shrink_dcache_for_umount clears the dcache from generic_shutdown_super, delayed evictions are forced to disk. If an evicted inode has extended attributes associated with it, it will need to walk the xattr tree to locate and remove them. But since shrink_dcache_for_umount will BUG if it encounters active dentries, the xattr tree must be released before it's called or it will crash during every umount. This patch forces the evictions to occur before generic_shutdown_super by calling shrink_dcache_sb first. The additional evictions caused by the removal of each associated xattr file and dir will be automatically handled as they're added to the LRU list.
