Care to test this patch? I am going to update xfstest overlay/036 to reflect this change: https://github.com/amir73il/xfstests/commit/c8098b949a0f3338e6f45e94e28ee6b7baa284e7 Vivek, Do you mind making your reproducer into an xfstest? If you do, please note that there is currently no _require_namespace in xfstests and the only test that does use unshare (overlay/020) just fails when kernel has no namespaces support, so this will have to be fixed.
