Are the names is_unsupported_fs() and SB_I_EVM_UNSUPPORTED still
a good description of what overlayfs is after this change?
Is EVM really not supported on overlayfs after this change?

Would you consider a better descriptive name, for the helper and flag,
at least as descriptive as SB_I_IMA_UNVERIFIABLE_SIGNATURE?

Thanks,
Amir.
