[PATCH] vfs: inline new_inode_pseudo() and de-staticize alloc_inode()

[Mateusz Guzik]

The former is a no-op wrapper with the same argument.

I left it in place to not lose the information who needs it -- one day
"pseudo" inodes may start differing from what alloc_inode() returns.

In the meantime no point taking a detour.
