[PATCH 2/2] overlay: notrun if upper fs does not support d_type

[Xiong Zhou <xzhou@redhat.com>]

Overlayfs whiteout can be visible if underlying upper fs does not
support d_type. Kernel commit
	45aebea (ovl: Ensure upper filesystem supports d_type)
prevents mounting overlayfs like this since v4.6-rc1.

Check upper fs before mounting overlay, mark as not run if needs.
