If the filesystem has parent pointers enabled, walk the parent pointers
of subdirectories to determine the true backref count. In theory each
subdir should have a single parent reachable via dotdot, but in the case
of (corrupt) subdirs with multiple parents, we need to keep the link
counts high enough that the directory loop detector will be able to
correct the multiple parents problems.

The VFS inc_nlink function does not explicitly check for integer
overflows in the i_nlink field. Instead, it checks the link count
against s_max_links in the vfs_{link,create,rename} functions. XFS
sets the maximum link count to 2.1 billion, so integer overflows should
not be a problem.
However. It's possible that online repair could find that a file has
more than four billion links, particularly if the link count got
corrupted while creating hardlinks to the file. The di_nlinkv2 field is
not large enough to store a value larger than 2^32, so we ought to
define a magic pin value of ~0U which means that the inode never gets
deleted. This will prevent a UAF error if the repair finds this
situation and users begin deleting links to the file.

If we encounter an inode with a nonzero link count but zero observed
links, move it to the orphanage.

If a directory looks like it's in bad shape, try to sift through the
rubble to find whatever directory entries we can, scan the directory
tree for the parent (if needed), stage the new directory contents in a
temporary file and use the atomic extent swapping mechanism to commit
the results in bulk.

Fix the file link counts since we just computed the correct ones.

Create the necessary hooks in the directory operations
(create/link/unlink/rename) code so that our live nlink scrub code can
stay up to date with link count updates in the rest of the filesystem.
This will be the means to keep our shadow link count information up to
date while the scan runs in real time.
In online fsck part 2, we'll use these same hooks to handle repairs
to directories and parent pointer information.

Create the necessary scrub code to walk the filesystem's directory tree
so that we can compute file link counts. Similar to quotacheck, we
create an incore shadow array of link count information and then we walk
the filesystem a second time to compare the link counts. We need live
updates to keep the information up to date during the lengthy scan, so
this scrubber remains disabled until the next patch.
