ovl: fix unneeded call to ovl_change_flags()
The check if user has changed the overlay file was wrong, causing unneeded call to ovl_change_flags() including taking f_lock on every file access. Fixes: d989903058a8 ("ovl: do not generate duplicate fsnotify events for "fake" path") Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> # v4.19+ Signed-off-by: Amir Goldstein <amir73il@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@redhat.com>
