For cases where a file lookup can go to different mount points (like in
overlayfs), both super blocks must have the same encoding and the same
flags. To help with that, create a sb_same_encoding() function.

Changes from v2:
- Simplify the code. Instead of `if (cond) return true`, just do `return
cond`;
