Subject: [PATCH 4/4] ovl: alllow remote upper
Date: Fri, 31 Jan 2020 12:50:04 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200131115004.17410-5-mszeredi@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200131115004.17410-1-mszeredi@redhat.com>

No reason to prevent upper layer being a remote filesystem.  Do the
revalidation in that case, just as we already do for lower layers.

This lets virtiofs be used as upper layer, which appears to be a real use
case.
