I am curious how bind/shift mount is expected to handle inode_permission().

Otherwise, I am fine with the change, short of some style comments
below...

I suppose passing path down to all security/ima hooks is the next step?

This style is weird for me. Is it just me?
If you just need the struct once, I rather you define it inside function args.
Otherwise, I'd rather the local path var wasn't a pointer, but the
actual struct.

Use lower_path for conformity.

I suppose next step is to pass path down to
dentry_needs_remove_privs() => security_inode_need_killpriv()
or rather a new security_path_need_killpriv()?

There is no longer use for local var dentry.
Use local var path and assign fhp->fh_dentry directly to path.dentry.

It seems like you caused a lot of churn for that change and you only
use c->destpath in one place for ovl_set_timestamps(), so it might be
easier to compose destpath from c->destdir just in that one call site.

upperpath please. Otherwise it gets harder to tell between overlay path

upperpath please, otherwise local var names for upper dentry/inode
can get messy.
