I have rebased Amir's "ovl: relax same fs constrain for constant st_ino"
patch on top of the changes made in this patch. The tree containing
the rebased patch can be found at
"https://github.com/chandanr/linux.git rework-anonymous-dev"
I have tested this by executing unionmount-testsuite's "./run --ov --verify".
