For patches removing dead code it's good to do a bit of research what
was the reason for that. In most cases it's a simple leftover after some
other cleanup or rework, ie. harmless, but this needs to be reviewed
anyway and the reference in changelog helps.

In this case it's after my commit 00032d38eaa89c76de7, I'll update the
changelog. And the previous patch removing inode in relink_file_extents
was udpated too.
