Subject: [PATCH 5/6] ovl: port ovl_create_or_link() to new prepare_creds_ovl cleanup guard
Date: Fri, 14 Nov 2025 11:15:20 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251114-work-ovl-cred-guard-prepare-v1-5-4fc1208afa3d@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251114-work-ovl-cred-guard-prepare-v1-0-4fc1208afa3d@kernel.org>

This clearly indicates the double-credential override and makes the code
a lot easier to grasp with one glance.
