Hi Linus,

Resending the pull request with signed tag.

This branch has been sitting in linux-next for several weeks and it
has gone through all the usual overlayfs test routines.

The branch has also been tested together with the changes in
Christain's vfs tree, which have been merged to master yesterday.

The branch merges cleanly with master branch of the moment.

Please refer to details about contained patch sets below.

Thanks,
Amir.
