ovl: drop WARN_ON() dentry is NULL in ovl_encode_fh()
commit dd524b7f317de8d31d638cbfdc7be4cf9b770e42 upstream.
Some code paths cannot guarantee the inode have any dentry alias. So
WARN_ON() all !dentry may flood the kernel logs.
For example, when an overlayfs inode is watched by inotifywait (1), and
someone is trying to read the /proc/$(pidof inotifywait)/fdinfo/INOTIFY_FD,
at that time if the dentry has been reclaimed by kernel (such as
echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches), there will be a WARN_ON(). The
printed call stack would be like:
? show_mark_fhandle+0xf0/0xf0
show_mark_fhandle+0x4a/0xf0
? show_mark_fhandle+0xf0/0xf0
? seq_vprintf+0x30/0x50
? seq_printf+0x53/0x70
? show_mark_fhandle+0xf0/0xf0
inotify_fdinfo+0x70/0x90
show_fdinfo.isra.4+0x53/0x70
seq_show+0x130/0x170
seq_read+0x153/0x440
vfs_read+0x94/0x150
ksys_read+0x5f/0xe0
do_syscall_64+0x59/0x1e0
entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9
So let's drop WARN_ON() to avoid kernel log flooding.
