new helper: end_writeback()

Essentially, the minimal variant of ->evict_inode().  It's
a trimmed-down clear_inode(), sans any fs callbacks.  Once
it returns we know that no async writeback will be happening;
every ->evict_inode() instance should do that once and do that
before doing anything ->write_inode() could interfere with
(e.g. freeing the on-disk inode).
