Miklos,

Most of this series is sorting out internal overlayfs messy code
having to do with i_ino.

The value of i_ino was very inconsistent in different setups, so this
series also sorts this out and adds documentation of expected values
for st_ino/d_ino/i_ino in different setups.

Patch #5 fixes a potential inode number collision bug (st_ino;st_dev).
It happens with the "less tested" case of xino bits overflow.
I have recently posted [1] some xfstests which also test overlay i_ino.
They require a /proc/locks fix that was merged to v5.5-rc4.
The test overlay/071 also tests a case of xino bits overflow.

Patch #6 includes a change of behavior, which auto enables xino for
tmpfs/xfs.

The series is available on branch ovl-ino on my github [2] and depends
on the previously posted ovl-layers pathces [3].

  ovl: fix value of i_ino for lower hardlink corner case
  ovl: fix out of date comment and unreachable code
  ovl: factor out helper ovl_get_root()
  ovl: simplify i_ino initialization
  ovl: avoid possible inode number collisions with xino=on
  ovl: enable xino automatically in more cases
  ovl: document xino expected behavior
