+ help
+ If this config option is enabled then overlay filesystems will use
+ unused high bits in undelying filesystem inode numbers to map all
+ inodes to a unified address space. The mapped 64bit inode numbers
+ might not be compatible with applications that expect 32bit inodes.

+ If compatibility with applications that expect 32bit inodes is not an
+ issue, then it is safe and recommended to say Y here.
