ovl: stop using d_alloc_anon()/d_instantiate_anon()
Commit f9c34674bc60 ("vfs: factor out helpers d_instantiate_anon() and d_alloc_anon()") was introduced so overlayfs could initialize a non-dir disconnected overlay dentry before overlay inode is attached to it. Since commit ("0af950f57fef ovl: move ovl_entry into ovl_inode"), all ovl_obtain_alias() can do is set DCACHE_OP_*REVALIDATE flags in ->d_flags and OVL_E_UPPER_ALIAS flag in ->d_fsdata. The DCACHE_OP_*REVALIDATE flags and OVL_E_UPPER_ALIAS flag are irrelevant for a disconnected non-dir dentry, so it is better to use d_obtain_alias() instead of open coding it.
