[PATCH] ovl: set I_CREATING on inode being created
From: Miklos Szeredi
Date: Wed Aug 22 2018 - 04:55:35 EST
...otherwise there will be list corruption due to inode_sb_list_add() being
called for inode already on the sb list.

This missed the 4.19 overlay pull request, because it fixes a bug
introduced by patch not in said pull (buggy patch is also mine,
incidentally).
