Konstantin Belousov d9ca1af7ed VFS sometimes is unable to inactivate a vnode when vnode use count
goes to zero. E.g., the vnode might be only shared-locked at the time of
vput() call. Such vnodes are kept in the hash, so they can be found later.

If ffs_valloc() allocated an inode that has its vnode cached in hash, and
still owing the inactivation, then vget() call from ffs_valloc() clears
VI_OWEINACT, and then the vnode is reused for the newly allocated inode.

The problem is, the vnode is not reclaimed before it is put to the new
use. ffs_valloc() recycles vnode vm object, but this is not enough.
In particular, at least v_vflag should be cleared, and several bits of
UFS state need to be removed.

It is very inconvenient to call vgone() at this point. Instead, move
some parts of ufs_reclaim() into helper function ufs_prepare_reclaim(),
and call the helper from VOP_RECLAIM and ffs_valloc().
