... and now it even builds. Said that, I would really like to hear something
from you - I can duplicate the entire overlayfs-next and merge it into
my #for-next and ask Steven to use that instead of your tree, but I very
much dislike going over your head like that.

I realize that you'd been away for a while and probably are digging yourself
from under the piles of mail, but it's getting late in the cycle and I want
to get #for-next into reasonably sane shape. Please, look through that
thing and respond.
