Subject: [GIT PULL] overlayfs update for 4.13

Hi Linus,

Please pull from:

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

This work from Amir introduces the inodes index feature, which provides:

- hardlinks are not broken on copy up;
- infrastructure for overlayfs NFS export.

This  also fixes constant st_ino for samefs case for lower hardlinks.

There's one patch touching <linux/fs.h>, which adds an inode flag for testing
"in use by another overlay".  So this flag is set on inodes in the underlying
layers, but the use is private to overlayfs.

Thanks,
Miklos
