The error message also appears when both "aufs" and "loop" are compiled as a module. The problem is that depmod doesn't detect "loop" as a dependency module of "aufs". So you need to manually load "loop", then "aufs" (happens in Archlinux linux-zen kernel, for example). I got the following answer about it:
Depmod only figures out dependencies via undefined symbols. AUFS doesn't call loop_backing_file directly, it just redirects it. Seems that this doesn't create a detectable dependency. Is there anything you can do about this?

The function was added into aufs3-loopback.patch. Later it was moved aufs3-base.patch. But it was removed... I've found it now. I think it is a problem of my release script and I am going to fix it. Until then, please apply this patch. J. R.
