+ * owners of it.
+ *
+ * The complexity here is that we don't have an inode context to work with, so

+ * We are in the middle of log recovery, so we can't run transactions. That
+ * means we cannot use cache coherent inode instantiation via xfs_iget(), as
+ * that will result in the corresponding iput() running the inode through
+ * xfs_inactive(). If we've just replayed an inode core that changes the link
+ * count to zero (i.e. it's been unlinked), then xfs_inactive() will run
+ * transactions (bad!).
+ *
+ * So, to avoid this, we instantiate an inode directly from the inode core we've
+ * just recovered. We have the buffer still locked, and all we really need to
+ * instantiate is the inode core and the forks being modified. We can do this
+ * manually, then run the inode btree owner change, and then tear down the
+ * xfs_inode without having to run any transactions at all.
+ *
+ * Also, because we don't have a transaction context available here but need to
