Subject: [GIT PULL] notification tree - fsnotify assumes incorrectly
 positive parent dentry

Linus please consider pulling from the notification tree.  There is one
patch in the tree which should fix an issue in which fsnotify assumed
that dentry->d_parent->d_inode != NULL.  This turns out to be false for
spufs and causes a panic.
