Hello Jeff,

The approach unionfs-2.1.2 took differs from mine.
Major difference is,
- in this approach, the cache in struct file is the completed virtual
  disk block for the dir.
- readdir doesn't have to call vfs_readdir when the cache exists and is
  valid. simply calls filldir.
- it supports SEEK_END.
