Hi all,

we observed a change in the behaviour of overlayfs.bbclass when porting a BSP 
from scarthgap to wrynose:

This class used to create a helper unit that created the upperdir if it did 
not exist by calling the script found in meta/files/overlayfs-create-dirs.sh. 
Additionally, the script changed the owner of the upperdir to match the one of 
the lowerdir.

This helper unit and script been removed in oe-core with commit 
623c20ff1e989730138c3fbe6e8247eaada20707 because systemd now automatically 
creates the upperdir if it does not exist. But systemd does not adapt the 
ownership; instead, it gets created as owned by the default user and group 
(root:root).

I could not find any reference to this change in the migration notes - is this 
an intentional change or have we discovered a regression?

Best regards,
Andreas
