readdir() in union mounts is implemented by copying up all visible
directory entries from the lower level directories to the topmost
directory. Directory entries that refer to lower level file system
objects are marked as "fallthru" in the topmost directory.

+/**
+ * union_copyup_dir - copy up low-level directory entries to topmost dir
+ *
+ * readdir() is difficult to support on union file systems for two
+ * reasons: We must eliminate duplicates and apply whiteouts, and we
+ * must return something in f_pos that lets us restart in the same
+ * place when we return. Our solution is to, on first readdir() of
+ * the directory, copy up all visible entries from the low-level file
+ * systems and mark the entries that refer to low-level file system
+ * objects as "fallthru" entries.
+ *
+ * Locking strategy: We hold the topmost dir's i_mutex on entry. We
+ * grab the i_mutex on lower directories one by one. So the locking
+ * order is:
+ *
+ * Writable/topmost layers > Read-only/lower layers
+ *
+ * So there is no problem with lock ordering for union stacks with
+ * multiple lower layers. E.g.:
+ *
+ * (topmost) A->B->C (bottom)
+ * (topmost) D->C->B (bottom)
+ *
+ * (Not that we support more than two layers at the moment.)
