Title:
  aufs build is broken on 5.11 kernels

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in linux source package in Hirsute:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  [ Impact ]
  Commit 35e8d405b009 "fs: export an inode_update_time helper" (upstream commit 
e60feb445fce9e51c1558a6aa7faf9dd5ded533b), applied to hirsure:linux via 
upstream stable broke the build of aufs. The function 'update_time()' is used 
by aufs and was exported before by a SAUCE patch (0d3312035010 "UBUNTU: SAUCE: 
Import aufs driver").

  [ Fix ]
  The proposed fix is to patch aufs to use the new function name. There is no 
functional change.

  [ Test ]
  Build a 5.11 kernel with AUFS enabled.

  [ Where problems could occur ]
  By keeping the new function name, if any other internal or external module is 
using 'update_time()' their build will also fail. This will need to be 
addressed case-by-case.
