Okay, I'll make that change, thanks.
I notice that most overlays seem to use be_entry_get_rw(), and one
(translucent) uses both. What is the reasoning to use one over the other?
Most of those overlays were written before overlay_entry_get_ov() was written.
It's just a convenience function so you don't have to juggle bd_info pointers
all the time.
