I don't think that's correct.

The bug is ntfs instantiating an inode with bogus type (based on an
intentionally corrupted filesystem), violating the api contract with
vfs, which in turn results in the warning way later.

It may be someone sorted out ntfs doing this in the meantime, I have
not checked.

With this in mind I don't believe your patch fixed it, at best it
happened to neuter the reproducer.

vfs could definitely be patched to catch this when I_NEW is getting
cleared (only when  running with debug), not in the spot which
generates the warn.
