+# Test overlay nlink when adding upper hardlinks.
+#
+# nlink of overlay inode could be dropped indefinitely by adding
+# unaccounted upper hardlinks underneath a mounted overlay and
+# trying to remove them.
+#
+# This is a variant of test overlay/034 with mangling of upper instead
+# of lower hardlinks. Unlike overlay/034, this test does not require the
+# inode index feature and will pass whether is it enabled or disabled
+# by default.
+#
+# This is a regression test for kernel commit 83552eacdfc0
+# ("ovl: fix WARN_ON nlink drop to zero").
+# Without the fix, the test triggers
+# WARN_ON(inode->i_nlink == 0) in drop_link().
