The basic policy release aufs is
- against linux mainline
- against linux-stable releases
which means that aufs is distribution-neutral.

If Canonical/Debian's 3.16 series were listed on www.kernel.org (and
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git
contained it), then aufs would support it.
Additionally Canonial Ubuntu had expressed that they don't want aufs and
stopped updating several years ago. If Canonical/Debian kernel want
aufs, then they should easily merge by git-pull (and merge) and
git-cherry-pick as usual I guess.
