Public bug reported:

overlayfs does not support renaming directories when the directories
live in the lower filesystem:

 * Directory renames only allowed on "pure upper" (already created on
 * upper filesystem, never copied up).  Directories which are on lower or
 * are merged may not be renamed.  For these -EXDEV is returned and
 * userspace has to deal with it.  This means, when copying up a
 * directory we can rely on it and ancestors being stable.
