Thanx lettng me know. I didn't know that.

Yes, this is an aufs bug. Thanx for reporting and fixing.
As an upstream developer, I will merge and release the patch in next
week with adding these tags in the commit.

Reported-by: Torok Edwin <edwin at skylable.com>

But currently aufs-utils.git (the debian pkg name is aufs-tools)
supports the versions for linux-v4.1 and later. It means the upsteam fix
goes to the "future" for aufs-tools pkg and it doesn't affect debian.
It might be one reason that no one had ever forwarded me this report.
Anyway I don't think it a big problem since aufs-tools has already
contained the fix.

FYI, The versions in this report are
- aufs-tools	1:3.2+20130722-1.1
- linux-image	3.16.7-ckt2-1

and the aufs supported version history is
- 3.2	Unsupported since Nov 2013
- 3.16	Unsupported since Oct 2015
