Bug Description
Hi
When you mount an overlayfs in an overlayfs, you get really issues about files not being found on the lower overlayfs
However a fix for this appears to have been merged into the kernel in master
https:/
In https:/
Is there any chance that this fix can be backported into Ubuntu's kernel?
but there also says something about 4.8 in the commit log, does that mean that it is going to be backported to 4.8?
