Well yuck!  get_unmapped_area is not part of mm_struct if !CONFIG_MMU.

Miklos, would adding '#ifdef CONFIG_MMU' around the overlayfs code be too
ugly for you?  Another option is to use real_file() in the mmap code as
done in [1].

Sorry for all the questions.  However, I want to make sure you are happy
with any overlayfs changes.
