inotify: Work around the vput() bug directly

Description

inotify: Work around the vput() bug directly

For 15.0, apply a minimal fix which at least ensures that inotify can't
trigger the latent race described in commit 99cb3dca4773 ("vnode: Rework
vput() to avoid holding the vnode lock after decrementing").
