If you had not mount /usbstick/root, aufs worked expectedly. But your
/proc/mounts shows that /dev/sda1 is mounted at /usbstick/root. That is
very strange.
I don't think you mounted /usbstick/root after the failure of aufs mount.
Will you try these steps and send me the debug log?
# mount -o ... /dev/sda1 /usbstick/root
# echo 8 > /proc/sys/kernel/printk
# (set up syslogd to receive debug log and restart it)
# echo 1 > /sys/fs/aufs/debug
# mount -t aufs -o dirs=/tmp/aubr1:/usbstick/root none /tmp/autest
# echo 0 > /sys/fs/aufs/debug
