Subject: [PATCH 38/73] union-mount: Prevent bind mounts of union mounts [ver
 #2]

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

Prevent bind mounts of parts of union mounts.

XXX - Bind mounting parts of union mounts is probably easy to
implement, but requires some careful thought about corner cases,
extensive testing, and some refactoring of the code.
