Hi,

This is V14 of overlayfs metadata only copy-up feature. These patches I
have rebased on top of Miklos overlayfs-next tree's branch overlayfs-rorw.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mszeredi/vfs.git overlayfs-rorw

Patches are also available here.

https://github.com/rhvgoyal/linux/commits/metacopy-v14

I think it made sense to rebase these patches on top of stacking file
operations. i know Miklos is making some changes to the patches. I will
rebase again once Miklos publishes his changes.

I have run unionmount-testsuite and "./check -overlay -g quick" and that
works. Only 4 overlay tests fail, which fail on vanilla kernel too.

Changes from V13.
- Rebased on top of overlayfs-rorw branch and made changes to deal with
  stacking file operations.

- Primarily took care of Amir's comments from V13.

- Dropped support for removing REDIRCT when metacopy file is data copied
  up.

- Dropped all the extra inode locking around redirects. I don't think
  any extra locking is required as of now. Put a rationale for my
  thinking in commit message of patch with following subject.

  "ovl: Set redirect on upper inode when it is linked" 

- Finally did not move setting redirect before lock_rename(), as there
  did not seem to be a need for extra locking so no issues with lock
  ordering, hence no need to move setting redirect before lock_rename.

Any feedback is welcome.

Overview
--------
Metadata only copy up allows for copying up of only metadata and data 
is copied up later when file is opened for WRITE operation. This seems
to have couple of use cases.

- Provide reflink like functionality for overlay filesystem.
- Make full container image chown operations faster.

I am especially interested in second use case at this point of time
where I want to chown container images fast and shift them for the user
namespace container is going to run in.

Thanks
Vivek
