ovl: Call ovl_create_temp() without lock held.

ovl currently locks a directory or two and then performs multiple actions
in one or both directories.  This is incompatible with proposed changes
which will lock just the dentry of objects being acted on.

This patch moves calls to ovl_create_temp() out of the locked regions and
has it take and release the relevant lock itself.

The lock that was taken before this function was called is now taken
after.  This means that any code between where the lock was taken and
ovl_create_temp() is now unlocked.  This necessitates the use of
ovl_cleanup_unlocked() and the creation of ovl_lookup_upper_unlocked().
These will be used more widely in future patches.

Now that the file is created before the lock is taken for rename, we
need to ensure the parent wasn't changed before the lock was gained.
ovl_lock_rename_workdir() is changed to optionally receive the dentries
that will be involved in the rename.  If either is present but has the
wrong parent, an error is returned.
