fs: use original vfsmount for touch_atime
In case of overlayfs, vfs_open is called recursively filling filp->f_path
with pointers to real dentry and vfsmount (upper or lower). Hence, touch_atime
has no access to mnt_flags of original (overlayfs) vfsmount. The patch fixes
the problem by saving original path to a new field of struct file.
The patch to be reverted when RHEL picks up 4bacc9c92 from mainline:
> 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).
Picking it now is premature because it introduced a lot of bugs (outside overlay)
and the chances are high to overlook some related fixes in mainline.
