Dmitry,

There is something strange about the C repro.
It passes an invalid address for the first arg of mount syscall:

    syscall(__NR_mount, 0x400000ul, 0x20000000ul, 0x20000080ul, 0ul,
            0x20000100ul);

With this address mount syscall returns -EFAULT on my system.
I fixed this manually, but repro did not trigger the reported bug on my system.

This is strange. I don't see how that can happen nor how my change would
have caused this regression. If anything, the lock chance may have brought
a bug in stack file ops to light, but don't see the bug.

The repro is multi-threaded but when I ran the repro, a single thread did:
- open lower file (pre copy up)
- lchown file (copy up)
- llseek the open file (so llseek is on a temporary ovl_open_realfile())

Perhaps when bug was triggered ops above were executed by different
threads?

Dmitry, I may have asked this before - how hard would it be to attach an
strace of the repro to a bug report?

Thanks,
Amir.
