ovl: don't traverse automount points
NFS and other distributed filesystems may place automount points in the tree. Previoulsy overlayfs refused to mount such filesystems types (based on the existence of the .d_automount callback), even if the actual export didn't have any automount points. It cannot be determined in advance whether the filesystem has automount points or not. The solution is to allow fs with .d_automount but refuse to traverse any automount points encountered.
