ovl_permission() accesses ->layers[...].mnt; we can't have ->layers freed without an RCU delay on fs shutdown. Fortunately, kern_unmount_array() that is used to drop those mounts does include an RCU delay, so freeing is delayed; unfortunately, the array passed to kern_unmount_array() is formed by mangling ->layers contents and that happens without any delays. The ->layers[...].name string entries are used to store the strings to display in "lowerdir=..." by ovl_show_options(). Those entries are not accessed in RCU walk. Move the name strings into a separate array ofs->config.lowerdirs and reuse the ofs->config.lowerdirs array as the temporary mount array to pass to kern_unmount_array().
