Google moved apex sessions directory from /data/apex/sessions to
/metadata/apex/sessions after commit:
"Move apex sessions directory to /metadata"
36cf4bbac6
Devices with a mounted metadata partition will have the needed
directories set up by system/core/rootdir/init.rc. Xiaomi devices
on sm6125 do not have a metadata partition out of the box, so things
like "Google Play system update" will fail to install the update.
Therefore, create a dummy directory under /data/vendor/metadata_apex
and symlink it to /metadata/apex.
The reason why the old /data/apex/sessions directory is not used
for the symlink is that apexd will call migrateSessionsDirIfNeeded()
to recursively copy things from the old directory to the new one.
Creating the symlink from /data/apex/sessions may result in
unintended behaviors.
