ovl: drop CAP_SYS_RESOURCE from saved mounter's credentials
commit 51f8f3c4e22535933ef9aecc00e9a6069e051b57 upstream.
If overlay was mounted by root then quota set for upper layer does not work
because overlay now always use mounter's credentials for operations.
Also overlay might deplete reserved space and inodes in ext4.
This patch drops capability SYS_RESOURCE from saved credentials.
This affects creation new files, whiteouts, and copy-up operations.
