Yes.

the nested overlayfs setup requires that either the inner
overlayfs has nfs_export enabled, as is done in tests
overlay/068,069,070,071
or that the outer overlayfs has index disabled.
The latter is easier for this test, because there is no need
for the index feature in these test cases.

Ok, I will send a new version of test 084.
