Why is this invalid? I presume because there's the idmapped mounts
feature. The problem is that this doesn't work in 5.13 when BTRFS is the
underlying filesystem. So shiftfs is still useful. Its turned on in
master build[1], why not for OEM, which is the only 5.13 available for
focal?

Here's a discussion suggesting that idmapped mounts for BTRFS won't be
available till 5.15[2]
