Zero for inode generation is more or less in the grey zone.

For inodes which can be accessed by users, inode 0 may cause small
problems for send, but despite that, no obvious problem.

For btrfs internal generations, it can be 0 and cause nothing wrong.

So here we don't check inode_generation == 0 case at all, or we could
lead to too many false alerts for older btrfs.

Thanks,
