xfs: distinguish between inobt and finobt magic values
The inode btree verifier code is shared between the inode btree and free inode btree because the underlying metadata formats are essentially equivalent. A side effect of this is that the verifier cannot determine whether a particular btree block should have an inobt or finobt magic value. This logic allows an unfortunate xfs_repair bug to escape detection where certain level > 0 nodes of the finobt are stamped with inobt magic by xfs_repair finobt reconstruction. This is fortunately not a severe problem since the inode btree magic values do not contribute to any changes in kernel behavior, but we do need a means to detect and prevent this problem in the future. Add a field to xfs_buf_ops to store the v4 and v5 superblock magic values expected by a particular verifier. Add a helper to check an on-disk magic value against the value expected by the verifier. Call the helper from the shared [f]inobt verifier code for magic value verification. This ensures that the inode btree blocks each have the appropriate magic value based on specific tree type and superblock version.
