reiserfs: workaround for dead loop in finish_unfinished
There is possible dead loop in finish_unfinished function. In most situation, the call chain iput -> ... -> reiserfs_delete_inode -> remove_save_link will success. But for some reason such as data corruption, reiserfs_delete_inode fails on reiserfs_do_truncate -> search_for_position_by_key. Then remove_save_link won't be called. We always get the same "save_link_key" in the while loop in finish_unfinished function. The following patch adds a check for the possible dead loop and just remove save link when deap loop.
