    xfs: allow linkat() on O_TMPFILE files
    
    The VFS allows an anonymous temporary file to be named at a later
    time via a linkat() syscall. The inodes for O_TMPFILE files are
    are marked with a special flag I_LINKABLE and have a zero link count.
    
    To support this in XFS, xfs_link() detects if this flag I_LINKABLE
    is set and behaves appropriately when detected. So in this case,
    its transaciton reservation takes into account the additional
    overhead of removing the inode from the unlinked list. Then the
    inode is removed from the unlinked list and the directory entry
    is added. Finally its link count is bumped accordingly.

    xfs: add O_TMPFILE support
    
    Add two functions xfs_create_tmpfile() and xfs_vn_tmpfile()
    to support O_TMPFILE file creation.
    
    In contrast to xfs_create(), xfs_create_tmpfile() has a different
    log reservation to the regular file creation because there is no
    directory modification, and doesn't check if an entry can be added
    to the directory, but the reservation quotas is required appropriately,
    and finally its inode is added to the unlinked list.
    
    xfs_vn_tmpfile() add one O_TMPFILE method to VFS interface and directly
    invoke xfs_create_tmpfile().

    xfs: factor prid related codes into xfs_get_initial_prid()
    
    It will be reused by the O_TMPFILE creation function.
