I vaguely remembered we have to leave it here since
otherwise it may impact compressed files.

Also EROFS_INODE_DATA_SOURCE_NONE means that mkfs
dump will change nothing about that, so I suggest

apply erofs_set_inode_fingerprint() to every
EROFS_INODE_DATA_SOURCE_NONE user
(e.g. in lib/tar.c) instead.
