Ubuntu: (Multiple Advisories) (CVE-2025-21887): Linux kernel vulnerabilities

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ovl: fix UAF in ovl_dentry_update_reval by moving dput() in ovl_link_up

The issue was caused by dput(upper) being called before
ovl_dentry_update_reval(), while upper->d_flags was still
accessed in ovl_dentry_remote().

Move dput(upper) after its last use to prevent use-after-free.
