commit 2c20b0f26694e1d40bb9b86f8eff5675e87003d1 upstream.

nilfs_sufile_do_free(), which is called when log write fails or during
GC, uses WARN_ONs to check for abnormal status of metadata.  In the
former case, these WARN_ONs will not be fired, but in the latter case
they don't "never-happen".  It is possible to trigger these by
intentionally modifying the userland GC library to release segments
that are not in the expected state.

So, replace them with warning output using the dedicated macro
nilfs_warn().
