This patch fixes up a few problems with jfs's reserved inodes.
1. There is no need for the jfs code setting the I_DIRTY bits in i_state.
I am ashamed that the code ever did this, and surprised it hasn't been
noticed until now.
2. Make sure special inodes are on an inode hash list. If the inodes are
unhashed, __mark_inode_dirty will fail to put the inode on the
superblock's dirty list, and the data will not be flushed under memory
pressure.
3. Force writing journal data to disk when metapage_writepage is unable to
write a metadata page due to pending journal I/O.

I'm finally getting around to cleaning out debug code that I've never used.
There has always been code ifdef'ed out by _JFS_DEBUG_DMAP, _JFS_DEBUG_IMAP,
_JFS_DEBUG_DTREE, and _JFS_DEBUG_XTREE, which I have personally never used,
and I doubt that anyone has since the design stage back in OS/2. There is
also a function, xtGather, that has never been used, and I don't know why it
was ever there.

jfs has never worked on architecutures where the page size was not 4K.

JFS was creating a new IAG (inode aggregate group) in one address
space, and afterwards, accessing it from another. This could lead to
complications when cache pages contain more than one page of jfs
metadata. This patch causes the IAG to be initialized in the same
address space that it is subsequently accessed with.
This also elimitates an I/O, but IAG's aren't created too often.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
