Hi Linus,

Please pull from:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mszeredi/vfs.git tags/ovl-update-5.7

- Fix failure to copy-up files from certain NFSv4 mounts.

- Sort out inconsistencies between st_ino and i_ino (used in /proc/locks).

- Allow consistent (POSIX-y) inode numbering in more cases.

- Allow virtiofs to be used as upper layer.

- Miscellaneous cleanups and fixes.

Thanks,
Miklos
