Bug Description

overlayfs does not support renaming directories when the directories
live in the lower filesystem:

 * Directory renames only allowed on "pure upper" (already created on
 * upper filesystem, never copied up). Directories which are on lower or
 * are merged may not be renamed. For these -EXDEV is returned and
 * userspace has to deal with it. This means, when copying up a
 * directory we can rely on it and ancestors being stable.

This should be fixed for release, one way or the other.

Did this issue start happening after an update/upgrade? Was there a kernel version where you were not having this particular problem? This will help determine if the problem you are seeing is the result of a regression, and when this regression was introduced. If this is a regression, we can perform a kernel bisect to identify the commit that introduced the problem.
