It is fine for an overlay pure upper inode to use the same st_dev;st_ino values as the real upper inode, because the content of those two different filesystem objects is always the same. In this case, however: - two filesystems, A and B - upper layer is on A - lower layer 1 is also on A - lower layer 2 is on B Non pure upper overlay inode, whose origin is in layer 1 will have the same st_dev;st_ino values as the real lower inode. This may result with a false positive results of 'diff' between the real lower and copied up overlay inode. Fix this by using the upper st_dev;st_ino values in this case. This breaks the property of constant st_dev;st_ino across copy up of this case. This breakage will be fixed by a later patch.
