ovl: update atime on upper

Fix atime update logic in overlayfs.

This patch adds an i_op->update_time() handler to overlayfs inodes.  This
forwards atime updates to the upper layer only.  No atime updates are done
on lower layers.

Remove implicit atime updates to underlying files and directories with
O_NOATIME.  Remove explicit atime update in ovl_readlink().

Clear atime related mnt flags from cloned upper mount.  This means atime
updates are controlled purely by overlayfs mount options.
