Yes, that should be a ')', not a ']'.

Mostly to document the behavior.  The vast majority of folks that read this code
will be KVM developers, not file systems developers, and will likely have no clue
about the relationship between f_mapping and i_mapping.  And in the extremely
unlikely scenario that anon_inode_getfile_secure() no longer sets f_mapping, a
WARN detects the issue whereas a comment does not.
