[PATCH 14/18] xfs: implement batched inode lookups for AG walking

[Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com>]

From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com>

With the reclaim code separated from the generic walking code, it is
simple to implement batched lookups for the generic walk code.
Separate out the inode validation from the execute operations and
modify the tree lookups to get a batch of inodes at a time.

Reclaim operations will be optimised separately.
