Pull overlayfs fix from Amir Goldstein: "Change the on-disk format for the new "xwhiteouts" feature introduced in v6.7 The change reduces unneeded overhead of an extra getxattr per readdir.

This change is also designated for 6.7.y" * tag 'ovl-fixes-6.8-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/overlayfs/vfs: ovl: mark xwhiteouts directory with overlay.opaque='x'
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.
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.
