[PATCH 6.6 08/21] xfs: introduce protection for drop nlink

[Catherine Hoang <catherine.hoang@oracle.com>]

From: Cheng Lin <cheng.lin130@zte.com.cn>

commit 2b99e410b28f5a75ae417e6389e767c7745d6fce upstream.

When abnormal drop_nlink are detected on the inode,
return error, to avoid corruption propagation.
