commit e445976537ad139162980bee015b7364e5b64fff upstream.
Ayushman Dutta reported our 5.10 kernel hit the warning. It was because
the original commit misses a Fixes tag and was not backported to the stable
tree. The fix is merged in 5.16, so please backport it to 5.15 first.
This ASSERT in xfs_rename is a) incorrect, because
(RENAME_WHITEOUT|RENAME_NOREPLACE) is a valid combination, and
b) unnecessary, because actual invalid flag combinations are already
handled at the vfs level in do_renameat2() before we get called.
So, remove it.

I will send another patch for 4.9 - 5.4 because of a conflict with idmapped
mount changes.
