[PATCH 2/3] ovl: Make ovl_dentry_weird() accept casefold dentries
From: André Almeida
Date: Wed Apr 09 2025 - 11:15:01 EST
ovl_dentry_weird() is used to avoid problems with filesystems that has
their d_hash and d_compare implementations. Create an exception for this
function, where only casefold filesystems are eligible to use their own
d_hash and d_compare functions, allowing to support casefold
filesystems.
