These warnings only appear after I merge the fsnotify tree into
linux-next.  The vfs tree has been merged much earlier.  So at least the
first of these is introduced by a vfs tree commit
(82a1dff3ed894a3b453474f168d55381a1e7318c "Lose the new_name argument of
fsnotify_move()") but only exposed by the merge of the fsnotify tree.
