Maybe something like this? It builds for me but I haven't tested it. It
looks like overlayfs already should report the upper layer's i_version
in getattr, though I haven't tested that either:

[PATCH] IMA: use vfs_getattr_nosec to get the i_version

IMA currently accesses the i_version out of the inode directly when it
does a measurement. This is fine for most simple filesystems, but can be
problematic with more complex setups (e.g. overlayfs).

Make IMA instead call vfs_getattr_nosec to get this info. This allows
the filesystem to determine whether and how to report the i_version, and
should allow IMA to work properly with a broader class of filesystems in
the future.
