Hi Ralph,

I am confused by the description above. Which are the 'both ubi volumes'?

Can you provide exact command of overlayfs mount, preferably
also a script to generate the lower/upper images and mount them
to remove any mkfs option doubts from test setup.

Does that happen on any attempt to rename a file?
A file that was only is lower I suppose?
Can you provide a simple script with your test, setting up the lower/upper
files and triggering the bug.

Thanks,
Amir.
