This is a simple patch to allow reflinks to be made crossing subvolume

NAK. subvolumes will have to become vfsmounts sooner or later, and we
really must not support any operations spanning mountpoints.
In what way would this interfere? the reflinked file gets its own inum
in its own mountpoint. The two files only internally share some disk
space.
Similarly, it would be pity if proposed deduplication couldn't cross
subvolume boundaries...
