From 954c736f865d6c0c68ae4263a2f3502ee7c447a3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Amir Goldstein Date: Mon, 18 Sep 2017 22:53:43 +0300 Subject: ovl: fix may_write_real() for overlayfs directories Overlayfs directory file_inode() is the overlay inode whether the real inode is upper or lower. This fixes a regression in xfstest generic/158.
