src/slave/containerizer/mesos/provisioner/docker/store.cpp (lines 361 - 382)
<https://reviews.apache.org/r/53053/#comment222724>

    If I understand this correctly, for directories AUFS relies on the 
`WHITEOUT_OPAQUE_PREFIX` file to remove directories between layers and regular 
whiteout files for removing files, whereas overlayfs relies on setting 
attributes (trusted.overlay.opaque) on the directory to remove them between 
layers and requires a character device file of ID 0 for removing reqular files. 
    
    Would be great to capture this logic in a comment here with citations to 
the overlayfs documentation 
    https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/filesystems/overlayfs.txt
    
    and the AUFS documentation.
