+ * • The kernel's overlayfs pseudo file system that overlays multiple real file systems

+ * through the stack to stat(). It doesn't do that for directories however. This means that
+ * comparing .st_dev on non-directories suggests that they all are mount points. To avoid
+ * confusion we hence avoid relying on this check for regular files.
+ *
+ * • The main reason we do this check at all is to protect ourselves from bind mount cycles,
+ * where we really want to avoid descending down in all eternity. However the .st_dev check
+ * is usually not sufficient for this protection anyway, as bind mount cycles from the same
+ * file system onto itself can't be detected that way.
