Linus Torvalds d9a185f8b4 overlayfs update for 4.19
This contains two new features:
 
  1) Stack file operations: this allows removal of several hacks from the
     VFS, proper interaction of read-only open files with copy-up,
     possibility to implement fs modifying ioctls properly, and others.
 
  2) Metadata only copy-up: when file is on lower layer and only metadata is
     modified (except size) then only copy up the metadata and continue to
     use the data from the lower file.
