Mounting overlayfs using other overlayfs instance as lower or upper layer triggers false-positive lockdep warning about possible locking recursion of ->i_mutex in iterate_dir(). Nesting already limited with FILESYSTEM_MAX_STACK_DEPTH = 2 to prevent kernel stack overflow. Overlayfs supports multiple lower layers thus the same configuration could be constructed without nesting.
