[PATCH 20/34] union-mount: Create build_root_union()

From: Valerie Aurora
Date: Thu Sep 16 2010 - 18:20:52 EST


During mount(), build_root_union() creates the union stack for the
root directory. All other directory union stacks are bootstrapped
from their parents' union stacks during path lookup.
