Hi Anders,

It is because WaitForFileCreation() is also called in nid, where nid 
does not really need to know IN_CLOSE.
To introduce IN_CLOSE in file_notify.cc, then we have to change nid to 
only wait for IN_CREATE, and transportd waits for IN_CREATE | IN_CLOSE.
If this sounds ok to you, I can make a V2 for the above change?

thanks,
Minh
