    Aufs pseudo-link (plink) represents a virtual hardlink across the
    branches. To implement the plink maintenance mode, aufs uses procfs.
    See also the document in this commit.
    
    There is an external user-space utility called 'auplink' in
    aufs-util.git, which has these features.
    - 'list' shows the pseudo-linked inode numbers and filenames.
    - 'cpup' copies-up all pseudo-link to the writable branch.
    - 'flush' calls 'cpup', and then 'mount -o remount,clean_plink=inum'
