ovl_follow_link current calls -put_link on an error path.
However -put_link is about to change in a way that it will be
impossible to call it from ovl_follow_link.
So rearrange the code to avoid the need for that error path.
Specifically: move the kmalloc() call

a) instead of storing the symlink body (via nd_set_link()) and returning
an opaque pointer later passed to -put_link(), -follow_link() _stores_
that opaque pointer (via nd_pin_link()) and returns the symlink body.

Now that current-nameidata is available, nd_set_link() can
use that directly, so 'nd' doesn't need to be passed through

As a result of this change, 'nameidata' is almost entirely
local to namei.c. It is only exposed externally as an opaque struct

Calling conventions for -follow_link() are rather unfortunate. It
would be better to have it return ERR_PTR(error) on error, NULL on
jumps and link body for normal symlinks. What we currently return
(opaque pointer used by -put_link() once we are done)

If you don't care about sampling and only care about totals, then you
can just open the events concurrently *without* grouping them, as I
stated previously.
perf record doesn't really support that. We need some group reader
that runs regularly. The best choice for the leader is a CPU sample

There appears to be no formal statement of what pv_irq_ops.save_fl() is
