Since I'm not using overlayfs, I don't know the difference between
real path and fake path. Would you explain using command line example?

  mkdir what_path1
  mkdir what_path2
  mkdir what_path3
  mount -t overlayfs ...what_paths_come_here?...

what the pathname returned by wrapping with file_fake_path() is, and
what the pathname returned by not wrapping with file_fake_path() is?
