Subject[PATCH 27/32] union-mount: Always create topmost directory on open
Date
From: Valerie Aurora (Henson) <vaurora@redhat.com>

When we open a directory, unconditionally create a matching directory
on the top-level. This way we don't have to go back and create all
the directories on the path to an element when we want to copy it up.
