    xfs: fix node forward in xfs_node_toosmall
    
    Commit f5ea1100 cleans up the disk to host conversions for
    node directory entries, but because a variable is reused in
    xfs_node_toosmall() the next node is not correctly found.
    If the original node is small enough (<= 3/8 of the node size),
    this change may incorrectly cause a node collapse when it should
    not. That will cause an assert in xfstest generic/319:
    
       Assertion failed: first <= last && last < BBTOB(bp->b_length),
       file: /root/newest/xfs/fs/xfs/xfs_trans_buf.c, line: 569
    
    Keep the original node header to get the correct forward node.
    
    (When a node is considered for a merge with a sibling, it overwrites the
     sibling pointers of the original incore nodehdr with the sibling's
     pointers.  This leads to loop considering the original node as a merge
     candidate with itself in the second pass, and so it incorrectly
     determines a merge should occur.)

    	cleaned up whitespace.  -bpm]
