From 6939f977c54a39207e94e429ee4eb14d4923736f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Miklos Szeredi Date: Mon, 14 Dec 2020 15:26:14 +0100 Subject: ovl: do not fail when setting origin xattr Comment above call already says this, but only EOPNOTSUPP is ignored, other failures are not. For example setting "user.*" will fail with EPERM on symlink/special. Ignore this error as well.
