Merge tag 'ovl-update-6.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/overlayfs/vfs

Pull overlayfs updates from Amir Goldstein:

 - Increase robustness of overlayfs to crashes in the case of underlying
   filesystems that to not guarantee metadata ordering to persistent
   storage (problem was reported with ubifs).

 - Deny mount inside container with features that require root
   privileges to work properly, instead of failing operations later.

 - Some clarifications to overlayfs documentation.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
