When using ocfs2 on 3.17.4 (i have seen this since 3.14) and
mount-bind ocfs2 to a lxc-container, when postfix inside the lxc tries to
write mails to ocfs2 dir using virtual transport, kernel says:

[ 3812.352564] (virtual,25186,3):ocfs2_link:812 ERROR: status = -2

In 3.12 this did not happen.

This code (from postfix virtual transport program 'virtual' seems to cause the
kernel message:

newfile = concatenate(newdir, STR(buf), (char *) 0);
if ((mail_copy_status = mail_copy(COPY_ATTR(state.msg_attr),
dst, copy_flags, "\n",
why)) == 0) {
if (sane_link(tmpfile, newfile) < 0
&& (errno != ENOENT
|| (make_dirs(curdir, 0700), make_dirs(newdir, 0700)) < 0
|| sane_link(tmpfile, newfile) < 0)) {
dsb_simple(why, mbox_dsn(errno, "4.2.0"),
"create maildir file %s: %m", newfile);
mail_copy_status = MAIL_COPY_STAT_WRITE;
}
}
if (unlink(tmpfile) < 0)
msg_warn("remove %s: %m", tmpfile);
}

This seems like a regression to me since this used to work in 3.12.33
