Define new structures to represent overlay instance lower layers and overlay merge dir lower layers to make room for storing more per layer information in-memory. Instead of keeping the fs instance lower layers in an array of struct vfsmount, keep them in an array of new struct ovl_layer, that has a pointer to struct vfsmount. Instead of keeping the dentry lower layers in an array of struct path, keep them in an array of new struct ovl_path, that has a pointer to struct dentry and to struct ovl_layer. Add a small helper to find the fs layer id that correspopnds to a lower struct ovl_path and use it in ovl_lookup().

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
