simplify checks for I_CLEAR/I_FREEING

Browse Source 
add I_CLEAR instead of replacing I_FREEING with it.  I_CLEAR is
equivalent to I_FREEING for almost all code looking at either;
it's there to keep track of having called clear_inode() exactly
once per inode lifetime, at some point after having set I_FREEING.
I_CLEAR and I_FREEING never get set at the same time with the
current code, so we can switch to setting i_flags to I_FREEING | I_CLEAR
instead of I_CLEAR without loss of information.  As the result of
such change, checks become simpler and the amount of code that needs
to know about I_CLEAR shrinks a lot.
