ovl: fix corner case of conflicting lower layer uuid
This fixes ovl_lower_uuid_ok() to correctly detect the corner case: - two filesystems, A and B, both have null uuid - upper layer is on A - lower layer 1 is also on A - lower layer 2 is on B In this case, bad_uuid would not have been set for B, because the check only involved the list of lower fs. Hence we'll try to decode a layer 2 origin on layer 1 and fail. We check for conflicting (and null) uuid among all lower layers, including those layers that are on the same fs as the upper layer.
