ovl: do not reconnect upper index records in ovl_indexdir_cleanup()
ovl_indexdir_cleanup() is called on mount of overayfs with nfs_export feature to cleanup stale index records for lower and upper files that have been deleted while overlayfs was offline. This has the side effect (good or bad) of pre populating inode cache with all the copied up upper inodes, while verifying the index entries. For copied up directories, the upper file handles are decoded to conncted upper dentries. This has the even bigger side effect of reading the content of all the parent upper directories which may take significantly more time and IO than just reading the upper inodes. Do not request connceted upper dentries for verifying upper directory index entries, because we have no use for the connected dentry.
