The igrab(inode) for the first time is for getting a refcount for the slot, isn't it?
The igrab(inode) for the subsequent times is for getting a refcount which is supposed to be dropped by the caller, isn't it?
_ocfs2_get_system_file_inode() always gets a refcount which is supposed to be dropped by the caller when it succeeds, doesn't it?

So why do you want one more refcount?
