Most of my comments on this patch are identical to the ones I have made on
backing file, so rather complete that review before moving on to this bigger
patch.
I even wonder if we need a specialized macro for overlayfs
guard(ovl_creds, ofs); or if
guard(cred, ovl_override_creds(dentry->d_sb));
is good enough.
One thing that stands out in functions like ovl_rename() is that,
understandably, you tried to preserve logic, but in fact, the scope of
override_creds/revert_creds() in some of the overlayfs functions ir rather
arbitrary.
The simplest solution for functions like the above is to use guard(cred, ..
and extend the scope till the end of the function.
This needs more careful review, but the end result will be much cleaner.

This is another case where extending the scope to the end of the function
is the simpler/cleaner solution.
