Summary:
It seems that 10.12.6 is not able to read APFS volumes properly if they contain hard links created on 10.13.

Steps to Reproduce:
Mount attached disk image.
It has a folder "hard and soft linked items".
Open it on 10.13 - verify that it contains 9 files.
Open it on 10.12.6 - see that it contains no files (same if you "ls" in Terminal).
