All non-regular files are hard-linked (when possible).
This is a bug, because in contrast to reflinking, hard-linked files share metadata (like permissions, mtime and so on). That's why this option should not create hardlinks for items like symlinks.
Also, reflink should handle sparse file wisely. I did not test how it works for sparse files.
