linux-next: merge conflict between vfs for-next and overlayfs-next

Hi Stephen, Al, Miklos,
I noticed that the vfs tree for-next branch is not yet in linux-next and
has a merge conflict with overlayfs-next branch, already in linux-next.
This is a trivial conflict due to the fact that commit f9c34674bc60 ("vfs:
factor out helpers d_instantiate_anon() and d_alloc_anon()") refactors
__d_obtain_alias() and changes the variable name from 'tmp' to 'dentry'.
Below is the patch to resolve the conflict when merging vfs for-next
onto overlayfs-next.
Probably best if Al picks up the re-factoring patch to his tree anyway.
Thanks,
Amir.
