ovl: fix regression caused by exclusive upper/work dir protection
Enforcing exclusive ownership on upper/work dirs caused a docker regression: https://github.com/moby/moby/issues/34672. Euan spotted the regression and pointed to the offending commit. Vivek has brought the regression to my attention and provided this reproducer: Terminal 1: mount -t overlay -o workdir=work,lowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper none merged/ Terminal 2: unshare -m Terminal 1: umount merged mount -t overlay -o workdir=work,lowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper none merged/ mount: /root/overlay-testing/merged: none already mounted or mount point busy To fix the regression, I replaced the error with an alarming warning. With index feature enabled, mount does fail, but logs a suggestion to override exclusive dir protection by disabling index. Note that index=off mount does take the inuse locks, so a concurrent index=off will issue the warning and a concurrent index=on mount will fail. Documentation was updated to reflect this change.
