Jann: Thanks for the report!

The master branch of the aufs5-linux repo does not actually have any aufs code at all, you have to look at the other branches. E.g.:

https://github.com/sfjro/aufs5-linux/blob/aufs5.3/mm/mmap.c

Imo shiftfs and ovl should restore the original vm_file value on error. This is simple to do, and giving the pointer to the lower fs file back to the caller without a reference seems like a bad thing to do regardless. I'll produce some patches.

I'll also open a new bug for the SB_I_NOSUID conflict.
