Merge tag 'ovl-fixes-4.19-rc4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mszeredi/vfs

Pull overlayfs fixes from Miklos Szeredi:
 "This fixes a regression in the recent file stacking update, reported
  and fixed by Amir Goldstein. The fix is fairly trivial, but involves
  adding a fadvise() f_op and the associated churn in the vfs. As
  discussed on -fsdevel, there are other possible uses for this method,
  than allowing proper stacking for overlays.

  And there's one other fix for a syzkaller detected oops"

README

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 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.
