Since both posix_acl.h and posix_acl_xattr.h are included by overlayfs.h
I would rather remove them both including the first posix_acl.h include.

It is far from being the only duplicate include in "overlayfs.h" and it is not
important enough IMO to start a cleanup project, but if you are going to
tidy up includes for a particular file, I'd rather use the opportunity to
cleanup that duplicity as well.

Thanks,
Amir.
