Yep.

No. Overlayfs doesn't support network filesystems as modifiable
(upper) layer, and that's where atomic_open makes sense. I think
actually no filesystem that defines atomic_open() can be used as upper
layer. So that's currently not a worry. If it turns out to be a
requirement to use such filesystem as upper, then I'll worry about
atomic_open().
Thanks,
Miklos
