ovl: simplify empty checking

ovl: simplify empty checking

The empty checking logic is duplicated in ovl_check_empty_and_clear() and
ovl_remove_and_whiteout(), except the condition for clearing whiteouts is
different:

ovl_check_empty_and_clear() checked for being upper

ovl_remove_and_whiteout() checked for merge OR lower

Move the intersection of those checks (upper AND merge) into
ovl_check_empty_and_clear() and simplify ovl_remove_and_whiteout().
