ovl: Initialize ovl_inode->redirect in ovl_get_inode()

Browse Source 
ovl_inode->redirect is an inode property and should be initialized in
ovl_get_inode() only when we are adding a new inode to cache.  If inode is
already in cache, it is already initialized and we should not be touching
ovl_inode->redirect field.

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 can become an issue.

Hence, move ->redirect initialization in ovl_get_inode().
