Subject: [PATCH 5.4 063/244] ovl: fix missing revert_creds() on error path

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@...cle.com>

commit 7b279bbfd2b230c7a210ff8f405799c7e46bbf48 upstream.

Smatch complains about missing that the ovl_override_creds() doesn't
have a matching revert_creds() if the dentry is disconnected.  Fix this
by moving the ovl_override_creds() until after the disconnected check.

Fixes: aa3ff3c152ff ("ovl: copy up of disconnected dentries")
