[PATCH] 2.6.22.6 reiserfs: work around for dead loop in finish_unfinished

[lepton <ytht.net@gmail.com>]

Hi,
  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 doesn'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. (against 2.6.22.6)
