If we encounter a directory with an entry that points to inode zero,
we'll crash due to an ASSERT during process_inode_chunk.  Instead, just
set the in-core parent to NULLFSINO so that phase 6 will reset it for
us.

So .... this is .... probably ok?  but the ASSERT makes me think that
process_dinode is never supposed to return a 0 parent if isa_dir is set,
and so I'm a little worried about breaking that assumption up and just
catching it later, here.  Usually the asserts mean "the code should never
let this happen and if it does, some prior code is wrong"

Looking at the calls below it, it seems like we generally call verify_inum
which would set NULLFSINO if the inum is bad.

But in process_dir2_data

[17:25]  <sandeen>                 } else if (verify_inum(mp, ent_ino)) {
[17:25]  <sandeen>                         clearreason = _("invalid");
[17:26]  <sandeen> so we probably saw that it's bad, but:
[17:26]  <sandeen>                  * We have a special dot & dotdot fixer-upper below which can
[17:26]  <sandeen>                  * sort out the proper inode number, so don't clear it.
[17:26]  <sandeen>                         clearreason = NULL;
[17:26]  <sandeen> and then:
[17:26]  <sandeen>                  * Special .. entry processing.
[17:26]  <sandeen>                                 *parent = ent_ino;
[17:26]  <sandeen> \o/

so ... I wonder if it wouldn't be more consistent to find the place under
process_inode() where we willingly/wrongly set *parent to an invalid value,
and handle the problem there?  Do you know what path you were on to hit this?

/me doesn't remember, it was either the sf dir scrub or the dir block
offline repair fuzztest setting the parent pointer to zero.

Aha, it's xfs/386 bu[1].inumber = 0.  I've found the part of
process_dir2_data that inexplicably doesn't check for null parent
pointers & blows up; will rework this patch.
