Partially revert "locks: fix file locking on overlayfs"

Browse Source 
This partially reverts commit c568d68341.

Overlayfs files will now automatically get the correct locks, no need to
hack overlay support in VFS.

It is a partial revert, because it leaves the locks_inode() calls in place
and defines locks_inode() to file_inode().  We could revert those as well,
but it would be unnecessary code churn and it makes sense to document that
we are getting the inode for locking purposes.

Don't revert MS_NOREMOTELOCK yet since that has been part of the userspace
API for some time (though not in a useful way).  Will try to remove
internal flags later when the dust around the new mount API settles.
