Subject: linux-next: manual merge of the fsnotify tree with Linus' tree

Hi Eric,

Today's linux-next merge of the fsnotify tree got conflicts in
fs/notify/inotify/inotify_fsnotify.c, fs/notify/inotify/inotify_user.c
and fs/notify/notification.c between commits
eef3a116be11d35396efb2a8cc7345fd3221e294 ("notify: unused event private
race") and cd94c8bbef8d4b796a7ed4c551355a334604fd36 ("inotify: tail drop
inotify q_overflow events") from Linus' tree and commits
7bf357aac07084acfac5f0e746aca85c42cc046e ("fsnotify: use
fsnotify_create_event to allocate the q_overflow event"),
cddf930f6410692ba1db0c53753492d119b1bd55 ("fsnotify: allow notification
requests to not include private data") and
7f51531a261beb6be2071f4345482ac488eea734 ("fsnotify: per group
notification queue merge types") from the fsnotify tree.

I fixed it up as best I can (see below) and can carry the fixes as
necessary.
