[PATCH v2] xfs: active inodes stat is broken

From: Dave Chinner <dchinner at redhat.com>

vn_active only ever gets decremented, so it has a very large
negative number.  Make it track the inode count we currently have
allocated properly so we can easily track the size of the inode
cache via tools like PCP.

Version 2:
- move stat increment to inode allocation code rather than cache
  miss code so that inc/dec are evenly balanced no matter who calls
  them.
