Andrea,
There is an inherent challenge with a cleanup series like this one
that touches many functions to avoid merge conflicts with other
devel branches. I did not try, but I expect there are conflicts
with the current overlayfs-next branch.
I also see at least one new direct reference of sb->s_fs_info
in ovl_maybe_validate_verity().
Please make sure to base your next submission on overlayfs-next
branch from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/overlayfs/vfs.git.
Once you do that, we could apply your patches to overlayfs-next
so they won't get stale again.
Thanks,
Amir.
