Joshua Watt 2848e37111 initscripts: read-only-rootfs-hook: Use overlay if available
Copying files from the read-only /var/lib to tmpfs can be slow and waste
memory. If the kernel supports the overlay file system, use it to mount
a writable tmpfs on top of the read-only /var/lib and avoid the file
copy.
