I originally found this bug within a nested docker container inside an lxd container. I then tested this with a overlayfs running directly on the host. I have tested this on multiple systems, physical and virtual (virtualbox and kvm) all produces the same result. Expected case: ownership of file with set(u,g)id set is changed. Actual case: chown segfaults with kernel error.
