Merge tag 'ovl-update-6.8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/overlayfs/vfs

Pull overlayfs updates from Amir Goldstein:
 "This is a very small update with no bug fixes and no new features.

  The larger update of overlayfs for this cycle, the re-factoring of
  overlayfs code into generic backing_file helpers, was already merged
  via Christian.

  Summary:

   - Simplify/clarify some code

     No bug fixes here, just some changes following questions from Al
     about overlayfs code that could be a little more simple to follow.

   - Overlayfs documentation style fixes

     Mainly fixes for ReST formatting suggested by documentation
     developers"

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
