Revert "[XFS] Avoid replaying inode buffer initialisation log items if on-disk version is newer."

This reverts commit b394e43e

.

Lachlan McIlroy says:
    It tried to fix an issue where log replay is replaying an inode cluster
    initialisation transaction that should not be replayed because the inode
    cluster on disk is more up to date.  Since we don't log file sizes (we
    rely on inode flushing to get them to disk) then we can't just replay
    all the transations in the log and expect the inode to be completely
    restored.  We lose file size updates.  Unfortunately this fix is causing
    more (serious) problems than it is fixing.
