I just tested the Q28 branch rebased onto a recent Fedora rawhide
kernel (4.20.0-0.rc5.git0.1) and that code seems to be working fine.
The submount test failed with Q28 and succeeds with Q28+fix, as
expected. Also, the overlay tests failures are gone now (except for
the 4 known failures from GH issue #43, since I had to rebase onto
4.20-rcX).

This is the commit that I used as the SELinux submount fix:
https://gitlab.com/omos/linux-public/commit/47922f9c70a83008388b836c285f94c40da1af2b

Kernel builds:
Unfixed Q28: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/omos/kernel-testing/build/833311/
Fixed Q28: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/omos/kernel-testing/build/833312/
