The left most branch has to be writable.

This should work:
mount -t unionfs -o dirs=/data/xxy=rw:/data/xxx=ro unionfs /data/unionfs

In this case, since we don't have a real device, you can call it
anything (instead of "unionfs".) Some people like to use "none", but
then things can get a little confusing when umount refuses to unmount
with "none busy."
