From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx> I_CREATING isn't actually set until the inode has been assigned an inode number and inserted into the inode hash table. So the WARN_ON() in fscrypt_setup_iv_ino_lblk_32_key() is wrong, and it can trigger when creating an encrypted file on ext4. Remove it. This was sometimes causing xfstest generic/602 to fail on ext4. I didn't notice it before because due to a separate oversight, new inodes that haven't been assigned an inode number yet don't necessarily have i_ino == 0 as I had thought, so by chance I never saw the test fail.
