Andreas Kling 1f9409a658 Ext2FS: Inode allocation improvements ...

This patch combines inode the scan for an available inode with the
updating of the bit in the inode bitmap into a single operation.

We also exit the scan immediately when we find an inode, instead of
continuing until we've scanned all the eligible groups(!)

Finally, we stop holding the filesystem lock throughout the entire
operation, and instead only take it while actually necessary
(during inode allocation, flush, and inode cache update.)
