commit 1c17d18e3775485bf1e0ce79575eb637a94494a2
Author: Yan Zheng <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

    A potential bug in inotify_user.c
    
    Following comment is at fs/inotify_user.c:287
    /* coalescing: drop this event if it is a dupe of the previous */
    
    I think the previous event in the comment should be the last event in the
    link list.  But inotify_dev_get_event return the first event in the list.
    In addition, it doesn't check whether the list is empty
