Thanks Miklos!

We still need the 'real_file()' routine for is_file_hugepages.  So combining
these, I propose the following patch.  It addresses the known issue as well
as potential issues with is_file_hugepages returning incorrect information.
I don't really like a separate header file for real_file, but I can not
think of any good place to put it.

Let me know what you think,

Subject: [PATCH v2] ovl: provide real_file() and overlayfs get_unmapped_area()

If a file is on a union/overlay, then the 'struct file *' will have
overlayfs file operations.  The routine is_file_hugepages() compares
f->f_op to hugetlbfs_file_operations to determine if it is a hugetlbfs
file.  If a hugetlbfs file is on a union/overlay, this comparison is
false and is_file_hugepages() incorrectly indicates the underlying
file is not hugetlbfs.  One result of this is a BUG as shown in [1].

mmap uses is_file_hugepages() because hugetlbfs files have different
alignment restrictions.  In addition, mmap code would like to use the
filesystem specific get_unmapped_area() routine if one is defined.

To address this issue,
- Add a new routine real_file() which will return the underlying file.
- Update is_file_hugepages to get the real file.
- Add get_unmapped_area f_op to oerrlayfs to call underlying routine.
