ovl: fix unneeded call to ovl_change_flags()

commit 81a33c1e upstream.

The check if user has changed the overlay file was wrong, causing unneeded
call to ovl_change_flags() including taking f_lock on every file access.

Fixes: d9899030 ("ovl: do not generate duplicate fsnotify events for "fake" path")
