inlining broke the logic and your branch fails the new PRE_ACCESS
test cases of fanotify03 LTP test (now pushed to branch fan_hsm).

Specifically in the test case that fails, parent is not watching and
inode is watching pre-content and your code gets to the p_mask
test and marks this file as no-pre-content watchers.

This passes the test:
