My internal style checker had a coffee break I assume ;). Below is a version with long lines fixed.

This unnecessarily scares users (well, they should be scared because of filesystem error, but the stack trace distracts them from the right source of their fear ;-). We could as well just remove the WARN_ON but it's not hard to fix it to not trip on filesystem with errors and not use more cycles in the common case so that's what we do.
