Here we have to face two abnormal cases:
1. inode is bad;
2. read inode from disk failed due to bad storage link.

I agree that 'bad inode' also means other abnormal cases like
'bad storage link' or 'no memory', but we can distinguish that by
ocfs2_is_soft_readonly(). I found that 'mount.ocfs2' did not
distinguish any error type and just return 1 for all error cases. I
wonder if we should return the exact errno for users?
