I would drop this pr_warn altogether (and ultimately the printk from
inode_init_security).  Not necessary.

Hmm...so if I try to open a file for write access, then we are going to
require that the process be allowed to write to both the union/overlay
inode and to the lower inode?  That seems problematic for the containers
use case where no write access will be granted to the lower files.
