Subject: ovl: relax WARN_ON() on rename to self
Git-commit: 6889ee5a53b8d969aa542047f5ac8acdc0e79a91
Patch-mainline: 5.5-rc2
References: bnc#1151927 5.3.17

In ovl_rename(), if new upper is hardlinked to old upper underneath
overlayfs before upper dirs are locked, user will get an ESTALE error
and a WARN_ON will be printed.

Changes to underlying layers while overlayfs is mounted may result in
unexpected behavior, but it shouldn't crash the kernel and it shouldn't
trigger WARN_ON() either, so relax this WARN_ON().
