Amir Goldstein 6eaf011144 ovl: fix EIO from lookup of non-indexed upper 
Commit fbaf94ee3c ("ovl: don't set origin on broken lower hardlink")
attempt to avoid the condition of non-indexed upper inode with lower
hardlink as origin. If this condition is found, lookup returns EIO.

The protection of commit mentioned above does not cover the case of lower
that is not a hardlink when it is copied up (with either index=off/on)
and then lower is hardlinked while overlay is offline.

Changes to lower layer while overlayfs is offline should not result in
unexpected behavior, so a permanent EIO error after creating a link in
lower layer should not be considered as correct behavior.

This fix replaces EIO error with success in cases where upper has origin
but no index is found, or index is found that does not match upper
inode. In those cases, lookup will not fail and the returned overlay inode
will be hashed by upper inode instead of by lower origin inode.

Fixes: 359f392ca5 ("ovl: lookup index entry for copy up origin")

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
