As the comment right above a WARN_ON() in create_file_dentry() states:

  * Note, with the mutex held, the e_dentry cannot have content
  * and the ei->is_freed be true at the same time.

But the WARN_ON() only has:

  WARN_ON_ONCE(ei->is_free);

Where to match the comment (and what it should actually do) is:

  dentry = *e_dentry;
  WARN_ON_ONCE(dentry && ei->is_free)

Also in that case, set dentry to NULL (although it should never happen).

Fixes: 5790b1fb3d672 ("eventfs: Remove eventfs_file and just use eventfs_inode")

Looks good to me.
