Ralph,

Can you please try to reproduce the problem with this command
on ubifs:

# create and link a tmpfile - then remove it
sudo rm -rf foo; sudo xfs_io -T -c "flink foo" . ; ls -l foo; sudo rm foo

That's the gist of xfstest generic/004.

You should expect the same behavior of corrupted fs after boot.

This issue should be reproduced since kernel 4.9 when ubifs tmpfile
support was added.

I hope this info can help the ubifs developers fix the problem
independently from overlayfs setup.

Thanks,
Amir.
