If a non-merge dir in an overlay mount has an overlay.origin xattr, it means it was once an upper merge dir, which may contain whiteouts and then the lower dir was removed under it. Do not iterate real dir directly in this case to avoid exposing whiteouts.

Your patch doen't hide whiteouts from readdir and it doesn't even pass you own xfstest... Anyway, here are the missing parts picked from my impure readdir patch.
