vfs: update ovl inode before relatime check
On overlayfs relatime_need_update() needs inode times to be correct on overlay inode. But i_mtime and i_ctime are updated by filesystem code on underlying inode only, so they will be out-of-date on the overlay inode. This patch copies the times from the underlying inode if needed. This can't be done if called from RCU lookup (link following) but link m/ctime are not updated by fs, so this is all right. This patch doesn't change functionality for anything but overlayfs.
