ovl: return anonymous st_dev for lower inodes

For non-samefs setup, to make sure that st_dev/st_ino pair is unique
across the system, we return a unique anonymous st_dev for stat(2)
of lower layer inode.

A following patch is going to fix constant st_dev/st_ino across copy up
by returning origin st_dev/st_ino for copied up objects.

If the st_dev/st_ino for copied up object would have been the same as
that of the real underlying lower file, running diff on underlying lower
file and overlay copied up file would result in diff reporting that the
2 files are equal when in fact, they may have different content.
