ext3/4 with synchronous writes gets wedged by Postfix

OK, that's probably the easiest way to do that, as much as I don't like it...
Since iget() et.al. will not accept I_FREEING (will wait to go away
and restart), and since we'd better have serialization between new/free
on fs data structures anyway, we can afford simply skipping I_FREEING
et.al. in insert_inode_locked().

We do that from new_inode, so it won't race with free_inode in any interesting
ways and it won't race with iget (of any origin; nfsd or in case of fs
corruption a lookup) since both still will wait for I_LOCK.
