Subject: [PATCH] fix error: a bin file can truncate itself while running at overlayfs.

From: Aihua Zhang <zhangaihua1@...wei.com>

I wrote a testcase to truncate a bin file while it is running at overlayfs.
the result as below:

Bus error (core dumped)

I think it's not appropriate for filesystem, and fixed it by this patch.
after the patch, result as below:

status:-1
errno:26
ETXTBSY:26
PASS

This is because the inode is not correct ,it should point to overlayfs rather
than the upper filesystem.
