Yeah, that'll do it. Though I think the fix should be something
different - why do we need ip->i_ino to find the agno or the
xfs_mount when we've already got pag->pag_agno and pag->pag_mount?

I'll clean up all these per-ag tag functions to only take xfs_perag
and an xfs_ino_t where needed and repost once i've tested it.

Cheers,

Dave.
