Old Synopsis: [patch] mkdir(1): mkdir -p PATH fails if a directory in PATH is on a read-only fs
New Synopsis: [unionfs] mkdir -p PATH fails if a directory in PATH is on a read-only unionfs

State-Changed-Why: 
Now I see how this can happen with unionfs: unionfs_lookup() returns EROFS
for CREATE namei operation when unionfs is mounted as read-only even if the
file exists.

I consider this a kernel (unionfs) problem and I don't think it's sensible to
patch mkdir(1).
