[PATCH 15/39] union-mount: Introduce MNT_UNION and MS_UNION flags

From: Valerie Aurora
Date: Sun Aug 08 2010 - 11:55:01 EST


From: Jan Blunck <jblunck@xxxxxxx>

Add per mountpoint flag for Union Mount support. You need additional patches
to util-linux for that to work - see:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/utils/util-linux-ng/val/util-linux-ng.git
