Subject: [PATCH 1/4] fs/unionfs/: Remove stale_inode.c

The stale inode operations were heavily based on bad inode operations. This
patch removes stale_inode.c and converts all users of stale_inode_ops to
bad_inode_ops as there seems to be no reason to return ESTALE instead of
EIO.

This is the more appropriate than porting the bad_inode.c fix (commit
be6aab0e9fa6d3c6d75aa1e38ac972d8b4ee82b8) to stale_inode.c.
