The special overlay mutex is taken first, hence it should be released last in the error path. Move "mutex_lock(&of_mutex)" up, as suggested by Frank, as free_overlay_changeset() should be called with that mutex held if any non-trivial cleanup is to be done. Merge the two tail statements of the success and error paths, now they became identical.
