The decision to emit a warning in fix_inode_reflink_flag seems broken; in
no-modify mode we'll do_warn that we're setting it (even though we don't),
and we'll be silent if it needs to be cleared.

Fix this so it's the standard "would" in no-modify, and "will" in regular
mode.  This also ensures that we return the proper status if flags are
found to be incorrect in -n or -e mode.

Oh, oops - I guess this might have been intentional, if "clear reflink flag
on non-reflinked file" is more of a preening operation?  So in -n mode
nothing happens, but we preen/clear it in full mode?

(but in that case do_warn in the full run still triggers a non-zero
exit code with -e ... bleah)

(also: this makes refusing to map & boot from "reflinked" files that may
not even /be/ reflinked at all even /more/ awesomely random, doesn't it!)

Correct.

Correct.

I think you're correct that it's not necessary to trigger a nonzero exit
code for a successful preening operation.

The purpose of the reflink iflag is a hint to the fs that it needs to
check the refcount data when performing writes.  IOWs, we use it to
avoid a performance hit when writing to files that have never been
shared (at least not since creation/the last xfs_{repair,scrub} run/the
last zero-to-eof FUNSHARE call) on a filesystem that supports reflink.

"not even be reflinked at all any more..." :)
