I did, what I supposed could happen here is if we can't find an
INODE_REF then do a search for DIR_INDEX/DIR_ITEM since those items also
contain the type of the inode they are pointing to. Fixing really boils
down to exploiting redundancy in the on-disk metadata to repair existing
items. Here comes the question, of course, what to do if we don't have
an INODE_REF and DIR_INDEX/DIR_ITEM are broken. I guess it's a judgement
call, currently you decided that inode_ref will be the source of
information. I'm fine with that I was merely pointing there is more we
can do. Of course we need to weigh the pros/cons between code complexity
and the returns we get.

Just that I will advise to make it explicit in the changelog that you
made a judgement call to utilize INODE_REF as the starting point of
doing imode repair but not necessarily the only one.
