Attached xfstest. I will post it once the kernel fix commit is finalized.

Thanks,

Subject: [PATCH] overlay: another test for dropping nlink below zero

This is a variant on test overlay/034.

This variant is mangling upper hardlinks instead of lower hardlinks
and does not require the inodes index feature.

This is a regression test for kernel commit:
("ovl: fix WARN_ON nlink drop to zero")
