Bug description:
  There's simply a missing flag, which was fixed here:
  https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git/commit/?id=0480334

  The patch claims it requires kernel 3.18+, but the overlayfs code in
  ubuntu's 3.16 kernel is already backported from later kernel revs.
