Sorry about that I didn't Cc the proper list at first,
but it could be checked by using lore:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-unionfs/20260623084337.54344-1-laoar.shao@xxxxxxxxx/T/#u

This topic is very specific to overlayfs details, I'm
not sure how I could say the background in brief.

But almost every single container user uses overlayfs
now, so in order to be responsible for end users,
container runtimes and applications, I used some
aggressive way this time.

Thanks,
Gao Xiang
