Pull overlayfs fixes from Amir Goldstein:
- Fix regression in 'xino' feature detection
I clumsily introduced this regression myself when working on another
subsystem (fsnotify). Both the regression and the fix have almost no
visible impact on users except for some kmsg prints.
- Fix to performance regression in v6.12.
This regression was reported by Google COS developers.
It is not uncommon these days for the year-old mature LTS to get
adopted by distros and get exposed to many new workloads. We made a
sub-smart move of making a behavior change in v6.12 which could
impact performance, without making it opt-in. Fixing this mistake
retroactively, to be picked by LTS.
