Amir Goldstein 6b8aa129dc ovl: generalize ovl_create_workdir()
Pass in the subdir name to create and specify if subdir is persistent
or if it should be cleaned up on every mount.

Move fallback to readonly mount on failure to create dir and print of error
message into the helper.

This function is going to be used for creating the persistent 'index' dir
under workbasedir.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
