This breaks if we append to union stack from outside of the union.
A particular case I hit is with a 3 layer union with a subdir union
between topmost and bottom layer. Now if you create the same-named
directory in the middle layer from outside of this union, you hit the
above BUG_ON. The below patch fixes this and it applies on top of all of
your patches.

Direct additions to union stack from outside of the union is resulting in
BUG_ON. But this is a valid case and hence needs to be supported. Modify
append_to_union() to correctly handle this case.
