[CC the developers who marked reiserfs for deprecation]

Resierfs AND moving files underneath overlayfs.
Not worth much investigation time IMO.
If I could tell syzbot, ignore this report, I would.

Resierfs deletes xattrs from reiserfs_evict_inode() context,
which seems to be related to the lockdep warning.

Thanks,
Amir.
