Kernel 6.12.63 compiled without aufs patch

The title says it all. Although EasyOS no longer uses aufs, I wondered if the patch itself might cause trouble.

This line of thinking came about because I have observed a pause at bootup of about 20 seconds on my Zenbook laptop sometimes, just after displaying the read speed test and asking for the password. It hardly ever happens, but then surprise, suddenly it does happen. Given the freezing errors at bootup when Easy was using aufs, that completely went away when changed to overlayfs, I wondered if the aufs patch itself might still be causing an issue.
