Subject: [GIT PULL (updated)] overlayfs update for 4.9

Hi Linus,

Please pull updated branch from:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mszeredi/vfs.git overlayfs-linus

Left out the mnt_want_write_file() and clone_file_range() patches altogether, so
this is now really overlayfs only.  There's vfs_get_link() and that's
technically in the VFS but it's a new helper (and ecryptfs can use it too so no
point in making it private to overlayfs).

The merge contains a conflict against the xattr update from Andreas.  The
resolution is to take my version as we now can and should do permission checks
on the underlying layers (with mounter's permission).

This update contains fixes to the "use mounter's permission to access underlying
layers" area, miscellaneous fixes and cleanups.  No new features this time.

Thanks,
Miklos
