Subject: [PATCH 41/73] union-mount: Temporarily disable some syscalls [ver #2]

From: Valerie Aurora <vaurora@...hat.com>

After some of the following patches in this series, a few system calls
will crash the kernel if called on union-mounted file systems.
Temporarily disable rename(), unlink(), and rmdir() on unioned file
systems until they are correctly implemented by later patches.
