Merge tag 'ovl-update-5.11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mszeredi/vfs

Pull overlayfs updates from Miklos Szeredi:

 - Allow unprivileged mounting in a user namespace.

   For quite some time the security model of overlayfs has been that
   operations on underlying layers shall be performed with the
   privileges of the mounting task.

   This way an unprvileged user cannot gain privileges by the act of
   mounting an overlayfs instance. A full audit of all function calls
   made by the overlayfs code has been performed to see whether they
   conform to this model, and this branch contains some fixes in this
   regard.

 - Support running on copied filesystem images by optionally disabling
   UUID verification.

 - Bug fixes as well as documentation updates.
