Kernel/FS: Fix check-then-act concurrency bug in FileSystem/Inode

Browse source 
When the FileSystem does a sync, it gathers up all the inodes with
dirty metadata into a vector. The inode mutex is not held while
checking the inode dirty bit, which can lead to a kernel panic
due to concurrent inode modifications.

Fixes: #21796
