ovl: fix corner case of non-constant st_dev;st_ino
On non-samefs overlay without xino, non pure upper inodes should use a pseudo_dev assigned to each unique lower fs, but if lower layer is on the same fs and upper layer, it has no pseudo_dev assigned. In this overlay layers setup: - two filesystems, A and B - upper layer is on A - lower layer 1 is also on A - lower layer 2 is on B Non pure upper overlay inode, whose origin is in layer 1 will have the st_dev;st_ino values of the real lower inode before copy up and the st_dev;st_ino values of the real upper inode after copy up. Fix this inconsitency by assigning a unique pseudo_dev also for upper fs, that will be used as st_dev value along with the lower inode st_dev for overlay inodes in the case above.
