Public bug reported:

[Impact]
CONFIG_AUFS_FS needs to be enabled in all kernels backported to Focal to keep 
compatibility when users upgrade kernels in the series. This kernel in 
particular did not have this config option enabled when the backport was 
created.

[Fix]
Enable CONFIG_AUFS_FS and make sure it stays enabled on rebases.

[Test case]
* CONFIG_AUFS_FS and its related configs should be the same as the generic 
kernel in Focal.
* The testcase ubuntu_aufs_smoke_test.aufs-smoke-test should be successful.

[Regression potential]
This is enabling a config option which was disabled before. Due to being 
intertwined with overlayfs and shiftfs changes in behavior or regressions could 
be cause on these two other filesystems.
