63c882a054 inotify: reimplement inotify using fsnotify
Reimplement inotify_user using fsnotify.  This should be feature for feature
exactly the same as the original inotify_user.  This does not make any changes
to the in kernel inotify feature used by audit.  Those patches (and the eventual
removal of in kernel inotify) will come after the new inotify_user proves to be
working correctly.

272eb01485 filesystem notification: create fs/notify to contain all fs notification
Creating a generic filesystem notification interface, fsnotify, which will be
used by inotify, dnotify, and eventually fanotify is really starting to
clutter the fs directory.  This patch simply moves inotify and dnotify into
fs/notify/inotify and fs/notify/dnotify respectively to make both current fs/
and future notification tidier.
