ovl: stack file ops
Implement file operations on a regular overlay file. The underlying file
is opened separately and cached in ->private_data.
It might be worth making an exception for such files when accounting in
nr_file to confirm to userspace expectations. We are only adding a small
overhead (248bytes for the struct file) since the real inode and dentry are
pinned by overlayfs anyway.
This patch doesn't have any effect, since the vfs will use d_real() to find
the real underlying file to open. The patch at the end of the series will
actually enable this functionality.
AV: make it use open_with_fake_path(), don't mess with override_creds
SzM: still need to mess with override_creds() until no fs uses
current_cred() in their open method.
