That code fires if the fileid (inode number) reported for a particular
filehandle changes. I'm saying that won't happen.
If you reflink (aka snaphot) a btrfs subtree (aka "subvol"), then the
new sub-tree will ALREADY have different filehandles than the original
subvol. Whether it has the same inode numbers or different ones is
irrelevant to NFS.
(on reflection, I didn't say that as clearly as I could have done last time)
