	context: get rid of resolve (LOGICAL_INO) serializer
There are kernel bugs in LOGICAL_INO from time to time; however, we can't avoid these bugs by serializing LOGICAL_INO calls. It hasn't been used for some time, so remove the code and less-than-completely-accurate comments. Signed-off-by: Zygo Blaxell <bees@furryterror.org>
