All the inode/ovl_inode properties ideally should be initialized in
ovl_get_inode(). Otherwise this can be a problem for the cases where
multiple dentries point to same inode (hardlinks, disconnected dentries).
As of now this is not a problem as redirects are used only for directories
which don't share inode. But soon I want to use redirects for regular files
also and there it will become an issue.
Hence, move ->redirect initialization in ovl_get_inode().
