** Description changed:

  As reported by Jann Horn on bug 1850994, unprivileged overlayfs mounting
  fails in disco/eoan due to SB_I_NOSUID and SB_I_USERNS_VISIBLE.
  overlayfs sets SB_I_NOSUID for unprivileged mounts, which causes
  mount_too_revealing() to bail out as it sees SB_I_USERNS_VISIBLE as
  being set.
- 
- Xenial has a differing conflict of s_iflags, which does not prevent
- unprivileged overlayfs mounts, but it should still be fixed.
