using the overlay option causes kernel warnings "upper fs does not support file handles"

Using the --overlay option causes kernel warnings:

[649407.156601] overlayfs: upper fs does not support file handles, falling back to index=off.
[649407.156607] overlayfs: fs on '/proc/self/fd/9' does not support file handles, falling back to xino=off.

The overlay functionality works fine, but since I run this command frequently, it is spamming the kernel logs with these warnings. I would like to get rid of them. Not sure what would be the cleanest approach, perhaps adding an option: --overlay-opt OPT Which would allow me to explicitly turn off the default mount flags that cause these warnings, for example with: --overlay-opt index=off,xino=off Perhaps alternatively those mount options could just be used by default, but I'm not sure that's the best solution. Would you consider implementing such an option or maybe accept a patch that does that, if that is the correct approach?
