ANDROID: vfs: add d_canonical_path for stacked filesystem support
Inotify does not currently know when a filesystem
is acting as a wrapper around another fs. This means
that inotify watchers will miss any modifications to
the base file, as well as any made in a separate
stacked fs that points to the same file.
d_canonical_path solves this problem by allowing the fs
to map a dentry to a path in the lower fs. Inotify
can use it to find the appropriate place to watch to
be informed of all changes to a file.
Test: HiKey/X15 + Pie + android-mainline,
and HiKey + AOSP Maser + android-mainline,
directories under /sdcard created,
output of mount is right,
CTS test collecting device infor works
