ovl: warn about orphan metacopy
mainline inclusion from mainline-v5.11-rc1 commit 0a8d0b64 category: bugfix bugzilla: NA CVE: NA ------------------------------------------------- When the lower file of a metacopy is inaccessible, -EIO is returned. For users not familiar with overlayfs internals, such as myself, the meaning of this error may not be apparent or easy to determine, since the (metacopy) file is present and open/stat succeed when accessed outside of the overlay. Add a rate-limited warning for orphan metacopy to give users a hint when investigating such errors.
