That fscrypt might have some very deep flaws.  I'll need to RTFS and
review its model, but what I've seen in this thread so far is not
promising anything good.

It's not just overlayfs - there are all kinds of interesting trouble
possible just with fscrypt, unless I'm misparsing what had been said
so far.
