ovl: fix possible use after free on redirect dir lookup ovl_lookup_layer() iterates on path elements of d->name.name but also frees and allocates a new pointer for d->name.name. For the case of lookup in upper layer, the initial d->name.name pointer is stable (dentry->d_name), but for lower layers, the initial d->name.name can be d->redirect, which can be freed during iteration. [SzM] Keep the count of remaining characters in the redirect path and calculate the current position from that. This works becuase only the prefix is modified, the ending always stays the same.
