Subject: [PATCH 52/58] [GFS2] Remove unneeded i_spin

From: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@...hat.com>

This patch removes a vestigial variable "i_spin" from the gfs2_inode
structure.  This not only saves us memory (>300000 of these in memory
for the oom test) it also saves us time because we don't have to
spend time initializing it (i.e. slightly better performance).
