That sys/mount.h has to be included before linux/mount.h.

I don't see this problem when I build it on my system when
I run:

make -C tools/testing/selftests
or
make -C tools/testing/selftests/filesystems/overlayfs

Are you running this after doing headers_install?

It depends on libc headers. It can work with one libc and doesn't work
with another one. I have seen many times when linux headers conflicted
with libc headers. The only reliable way to avoid this sort of issues is
to include just one linux or libc header.

In this case, we can do something like this:

diff --git a/tools/testing/selftests/filesystems/overlayfs/dev_in_maps.c
b/tools/testing/selftests/filesystems/overlayfs/dev_in_maps.c

This is definitely better solution to this problem than reordering
the includes only find another problem down the road.
