> If I do that, would you preffer to take these patches via the vfs tree

I would prefer if you:

* Add the vfs infrastructure stuff on top of what's in vfs.file.
  There's also currently a conflict between this series and what's in there.
* Pull vfs.file into overlayfs.
* Port overlayfs to the new infrastructure.

io_uring already depends on vfs.file as well.

If this is straightforward I can include it in v6.8. The VFS prs will go
out the week before January 7.
