Subject[RFC PATCH 2/4] Mount changes to support union mount.
From: Bharata B Rao <bharata@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Subject: Mount changes to support union mount.

Adds union mount support.

This patch adds a new mount type for union mount (MNT_UNION) and changes
the mount path to build a union stack during mount. The routines for
supporting the creation, traversal and destruction of union stacks are
also included here.

Signed-off-by: Bharata B Rao <bharata@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
