ovl_lookup_layer() iterates on path elements of d->name.name
but also frees and allocates a new pointer for d->name.name.
For the case of lookup in upper layer, the initial d->name.name
pointer is stable (dentry->d_name), but for lower layers, the
initial d->name.name can be d->redirect, which can be freed during
iteration.
[SzM]
Keep the count of remaining characters in the redirect path and calculate
the current position from that. This works becuase only the prefix is
modified, the ending always stays the same.

If a directory has the "trusted.overlay.redirect" xattr, it means that the
value of the xattr should be used to find the underlying directory on the
next lower layer.
The redirect may be relative or absolute. Absolute redirects begin with a
slash.
A relative redirect means: instead of the current dentry's name use the
value of the redirect to find the directory in the next lower
layer. Relative redirects must not contain a slash.
An absolute redirect means: look up the directory relative to the root of
the overlay using the value of the redirect in the next lower layer.
Redirects work on lower layers as well.

Use a common helper for lookup of upper and lower layers. This paves the
way for looking up directory redirects.
No functional change.

We already calculate f_namelen in statfs as the maximum of the name lengths
provided by the filesystems taking part in the overlay.

fs/overlayfs/super.c is the biggest of the overlayfs source files and it
contains various utility functions as well as the rather complicated lookup
code. Split these parts out to separate files.
Before:
1446 fs/overlayfs/super.c
After:
919 fs/overlayfs/super.c
267 fs/overlayfs/namei.c
235 fs/overlayfs/util.c
51 fs/overlayfs/ovl_entry.h
