Subject: [PATCH] fanotify: to differ file access event from different threads
This patch fixes a hang problem of Eric Paris's fs Notification/fanotify.
Fanotify brings a way to intercept file access events.
When multiple threadsiterate the same direcotry, some thread will hang.
This patch let fanotify to differ access events from different
threads, prevent fanotify from merging access events from different
threads.
