Subject: [PATCH 07/11] hlist-bl: add hlist_bl_fake()

From: Dave Chinner <dchinner@...hat.com>

in preparation for switching the VFS inode cache over the hlist_bl
lists, we nee dto be able to fake a list node that looks like it is
hased for correct operation of filesystems that don't directly use
the VFS indoe cache.
