    ms/overlayfs: introduce d_select_inode dentry operation
    
    The patch is simplified defensive backport of upstream commit
    4bacc9c9234c7c8eec44f5ed4e960d9f96fa0f01:
    
    >    overlayfs: Make f_path always point to the overlay and f_inode to the underlay
    >
    >    Make file->f_path always point to the overlay dentry so that the path in
    >    /proc/pid/fd is correct and to ensure that label-based LSMs have access to the
    >    overlay as well as the underlay (path-based LSMs probably don't need it).
    >    ...

    Original patch is prone to errors because other parts of linux kernel are not
    prepared to such a change of semantics of f_path and f_inode. So, we only backport
    simplified d_select_inode keeping f_path and f_inode intact.
