As _xfs_force_shutdown was written, it tried to schedule in an interrupt context
and caused a BUG() to be thrown.

Also, even if we didn't try to deal with leftover buffers in the interrupt,
they subsequently had their delalloc flags removed, and thus queued up
to clobber block 0 (1,2,3) on the disk, thus corrupting the filesystem.

So, remove the in-interrupt activity, and if we later get a dellalloc buffer
that bmap can't find a home for, just throw it away.

        - Don't try to clear out remaining delwri buffers in 
_xfs_force_shutdown,
          we are in an interrupt context and can't sleep, just let the
          buffers get caught as they try to get on-disk.

        - Don't just clear delay flag on bmap failure, wipe out the buffer
