Linux kernel source tree
The max count of lowerdir is OVL_MAX_STACK[500], which is broken by
commit 37f32f526438("ovl: fix memory leak in ovl_parse_param()") for
parameter Opt_lowerdir. Since commit 819829f0319a("ovl: refactor layer
parsing helpers") and commit 24e16e385f22("ovl: add support for
appending lowerdirs one by one") added check ovl_mount_dir_check() in
function ovl_parse_param_lowerdir(), the 'ctx->nr' should be smaller
than OVL_MAX_STACK, after commit 37f32f526438("ovl: fix memory leak in
ovl_parse_param()") is applied, the 'ctx->nr' is updated before the
check ovl_mount_dir_check(), which leads the max count of lowerdir
to become 499 for parameter Opt_lowerdir.
Fix it by replacing lower layers parsing code with the existing helper
function ovl_parse_layer().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
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.
