This online file check/fix feature is used to check/fix some light file meta
block corruption, instead of turning a file system off and using fsck.ocfs2.
e.g. meta ecc error, we really need not to use fsck.ocfs2.
of course, this feature does not replace fsck.ocfs2 and touch some complicated
meta block problems, if there is some potential problem in some areas, we can
discuss them one by one.

Here, if the inode block was corrupted, the file system is not able to load it
into the memory.
ocfs2_filecheck_repair_inode_block() will able to load it into the memory,
since it try to fix these light-level problem before loading.
if the fix is OK, the changed meta-block can pass the block-validate function
and load into the memory as a inode object.
Since the file system is under a cluster environment, we have to use some
existing function and code path to keep these block operation under a cluster
lock.
Thanks
