ovl: fix xattr get and set with selinux
inode_doinit_with_dentry() in SELinux wants to read the upper inode's xattr to get security label, and ovl_xattr_get() calls ovl_dentry_real(), which depends on dentry->d_inode, but d_inode is null and not initialized yet at this point resulting in an Oops. Fix by getting the upperdentry info from the inode directly in this case.
