ovl: drop negative dentry in upper layer
Negative dentries of upper layer are useless after construction of overlayfs' own dentry and may keep in the memory long time even after unmount of overlayfs instance. This patch tries to drop unnecessary negative dentry of upper layer to effectively reclaim memory.
