All the needed patches have been merged, but
Upstream commit 146d62e5a5867fbf84490d82455718bfb10fe824
("ovl: detect overlapping layers") did introduce a regression to
docker and friends into stable kernels :-/

The fix commit is already tested and waiting in linux-next:
0be0bfd2de9d ("ovl: fix regression caused by overlapping layers detection")
but did not hit upstream yet. When it does, will need to apply it to v4.19+

Thanks,
Amir.
