From: Amir Goldstein <amir73il@xxxxxxxxx> commit 4c37e71b713ecffe81f8e6273c6835e54306d412 upstream. The WARN_ON() that child entry is always on overlay st_dev became wrong when we allowed this function to update d_ino in non-samefs setup with xino enabled. It is not true in case of xino bits overflow on a non-dir inode. Leave the WARN_ON() only for directories, where assertion is still true.
