From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 1dc1eed46f9fa4cb8a07baa24fb44c96d6dd35c9 upstream. Normally the check at open time suffices, but e.g loop device does set IOCB_DIRECT after doing its own checks (which are not sufficent for overlayfs). Make sure we don't call the underlying filesystem read/write method with the IOCB_DIRECT if it's not supported.
