Pull overlayfs updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This contains overlayfs updates for this cycle.

  The changes for overlayfs in here are primarily focussed on preparing
  for some proposed changes to directory locking.

  Overlayfs currently will sometimes lock a directory on the upper
  filesystem and do a few different things while holding the lock. This
  is incompatible with the new potential scheme.

  This series narrows the region of code protected by the directory
  lock, taking it multiple times when necessary. This theoretically
  opens up the possibilty of other changes happening on the upper
  filesytem between the unlock and the lock. To some extent the patches
  guard against that by checking the dentries still have the expect
  parent after retaking the lock. In general, concurrent changes to the
  upper and lower filesystems aren't supported properly anyway"
