Thanks for your reply :)

For this part, EROFS initially followed what ext4, f2fs, even fsverity do,
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/fs/ext4/namei.c
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/fs/f2fs/namei.c
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiggers/linux.git/tree/fs/verity/verify.c?h=fsverity

I think I can remove these filenames as you suggested in the next version.
I thought these are some common practice and there is no obvious right or
wrong of this kind of stuffs.

Thanks,
Gao Xiang
