Heh, I did it this way first, then worried people might find it confusing

Hmm, this looks wrong. It should be in notify_change, since
The following two patches simply split fsnotify from inotify.
There should be no functional change to inotify at all. Perhaps the
split will help identify the interface bits that can easily converge
for inotify and audit. They're completely untested... I started with
inotify-45 in
Add fsnotify as infrastructure for various fs notifcation schemes.
Move dnotify to fsnotify.
