Basically aufs frees all the resources associated with the removed
branch. If you didn't install /sbin/mount.aufs (and other scripts) and
you didn't specify 'noplink' mount option, then unflushed pseudo-linked
inode may still alive.
If you know how to reproduce this problem, try first one of these,
- install aufs scripts to /sbin
- specify noplink
Anyway aufs has something to fix.
