>> I don't get how can each file system have a custom lifecycle for inodes, but still use the same functions for inode lifecycle management, but apparently with different semantics?

I had the same question. They're trying to understand (or even document) all the C APIs in order to do the rust work. It sounds like collecting all that information might lead to some [WTFs and] refactoring so questions like this don't come up in the first place, and that would be a good thing.
