Firstly, I want to read inode block separately, but the feature is working with a online file system,
we can't avoid the inodes cache and the cluster environment, I think that I should not handle a inode
block separately without considering the current inodes cache and potential cluster access from other node.
Then I tried to integrate this light-level online check/fix with iget() function, make the online check/fix
operations is compatible with the inodes cache and the cluster environment.
This is why I use iget() to integrate this feature. if there is a more graceful way to implement this feature,
please help to give some suggestions.

This online file check/fix is light-level meta-data block check/fix, the check/fix fields usually correspond
with ocfs2_validate_inode_block(), for more serious problem, we have to use fsck by offline.
If the inode is already in our cache, that means this inode block passed ocfs2_validate_inode_block()
verification during loading inode block from the disk, this inode block is sane, we need not check it again.
