From 2/5:
"Portable and immutable EVM signatures can be copied up by stacked file-
system since the metadata their signature covers does not include file-
system-specific data such as a file's inode number, generation, and UUID."
Instead, the signatures cover file metadata such as file mode bits, uid,
and gid as well as xattrs, which can all be preserved unchanged across a
copy-up.
