ovl: check whiteout in ovl_create_over_whiteout()
Kaixuxia repors that it's possible to crash overlayfs by removing the
whiteout on the upper layer before creating a directory over it. This is a
reproducer:
mkdir lower upper work merge
touch lower/file
mount -t overlay overlay -olowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper,workdir=work merge
rm merge/file
ls -al merge/file
rm upper/file
ls -al merge/
mkdir merge/file
Before commencing with a vfs_rename(..., RENAME_EXCHANGE) verify that the
lookup of "upper" is positive and is a whiteout, and return ESTALE
otherwise.
