xfs: fix broken i_nlink accounting for whiteout tmpfile inode 

XFS uses the internal tmpfile() infrastructure for the whiteout inode
used for RENAME_WHITEOUT operations. For tmpfile inodes, XFS allocates
the inode, drops di_nlink, adds the inode to the agi unlinked list,
calls d_tmpfile() which correspondingly drops i_nlink of the vfs inode,
and then finishes the common inode setup (e.g., clear I_NEW and unlock).

The d_tmpfile() call was originally made inxfs_create_tmpfile(), but was
pulled up out of that function as part of the following commit to
resolve a deadlock issue:

	330033d6 xfs: fix tmpfile/selinux deadlock and initialize security

As a result, callers of xfs_create_tmpfile() are responsible for either
calling d_tmpfile() or fixing up i_nlink appropriately. The whiteout
tmpfile allocation helper does neither. As a result, the vfs ->i_nlink
becomes inconsistent with the on-disk ->di_nlink once xfs_rename() links
it back into the source dentry and calls xfs_bumplink().

Update the assert in xfs_rename() to help detect this problem in the
future and update xfs_rename_alloc_whiteout() to decrement the link
count as part of the manual tmpfile inode setup.
