ovl: rearrange ovl_follow_link to it doesn't need to call ->put_link
ovl_follow_link current calls ->put_link on an error path. However ->put_link is about to change in a way that it will be impossible to call it from ovl_follow_link. So rearrange the code to avoid the need for that error path. Specifically: move the kmalloc() call before the ->follow_link() call to the subordinate filesystem.
