ovl: lookup indexed ancestor of lower dir
ovl_lookup_real() in lower layer walks back lower parents to find the topmost indexed parent. If an indexed ancestor is found before reaching lower layer root, ovl_lookup_real() is called recursively with upper layer to walk back from indexed upper to the topmost connected/hashed upper parent (or up to root). ovl_lookup_real() in upper layer then walks forward to connect the topmost upper overlay dir dentry and ovl_lookup_real() in lower layer continues to walk forward to connect the decoded lower overlay dir dentry.
