ovl: whiteout inode sharing
Share inode with different whiteout files for saving inode and speeding up delete operation. If EMLINK is encountered when linking a shared whiteout, create a new one. In case of any other error, disable sharing for this super block. Note: ofs->whiteout is protected by inode lock on workdir.
