    namei: Ignore misplaced files
    
    The namei salvaging/ListViceInodes code currently ignores files where
    we cannot derive an inode number from a given filename. However, if a
    file is a valid inode filename, but is in the wrong directory, we
    still record it. This can cause the salvager to abort, since it
    assumes inode e.g. 12345 is present, but when it tries to open 12345,
    namei translates the inode to a nonexistant path, and we bail out.
    
    It is unknown how a namei directory structure can reach this state,
    but try to handle it. To be on the safe side, just ignore the files,
    and log a message about them. That way, if the files are required for
    reconstructing the volume or contain important data, they are still
    available if needed. And if they contain incorrect or old data, we
    don't screw up the volume by trying to use them.
    
    Thanks to Sabah S. Salih for reporting a related issue.
