This is the 6th iteration of the patch and it pulls everything together
as well as adding a bit to Documentation/filesystems/porting.

Why are you passing ino?  If anything, it can be derived from the
last argument (and set by set())...

I would probably add two helpers - icreate() (as in your variant, but
without ino) and icreate_light() - with ino, but without last 3 arguments.

And then switched callers of iget() to icreate_liget()...

When some filesystem stops using iget() we can drop its ->read_inode().
When all of them are converted we can kill the method itself.
