vfs: fix typo in s_op->alloc_inode() documentation
The function which calls s_op->alloc_inode() is not inode_alloc(), but instead alloc_inode() which lives in fs/inode.c . The typo was there from the beginning from 5ea626aa (VFS: update documentation, 2005) - there was no standalone inode_alloc() for the whole kernel history.
