commit 1dc1eed46f9fa4cb8a07baa24fb44c96d6dd35c9 upstream.
Normally the check at open time suffices, but e.g loop device does set
IOCB_DIRECT after doing its own checks (which are not sufficent for
overlayfs).
Make sure we don't call the underlying filesystem read/write method with
the IOCB_DIRECT if it's not supported.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
