[PATCH v2 8/8] fs/9p: fix dups even in uncached mode

[Eric Van Hensbergen]

In uncached mode we were still seeing duplicate getattr requests
because of aggressive dropping of inodes.  Inode "freshness" is
guarded by other mechanisms when caches are disabled so this
is unnecessary and increases overhead of almost every operation.
