Here's the latest patchset to support multiple read-only layers for overlayfs.
Diffstat is against overlayfs-current branch.

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

I hope to have this included in 3.19.

Please review and test (I can post the full patchset if someone wants that).

Thanks,
Miklos
