Hi Linus,
Please pull overlayfs fixes for 6.6-rc6.
An earlier version of the fixes branch:
001cef5143c3 ("ovl: fix regression in showing lowerdir mount option")
has been sitting in linux-next for a few days.
Since then, I have made two small changes that Miklos requested.
Alas, the linux-next tree was not updated since next-20231013.
This branch has gone through the usual overlayfs test routines and it
merges cleanly with master branch of the moment.
Thanks,
Amir.
