[PATCH 3/8] xfsprogs: xfs_repair: don't set the root inode pointer

From: Kevan Rehm <kfr at sgi.com>

In phase 6, in mk_root_dir(), xfs_repair initializes the mount
point's m_rootip pointer without accounting for that reference.
This field never really used or needed in repair otherwise, and the
assigned pointer doesn't really represent a real reference to an
inode that needs to be cached.  So just kill off this assignment.
