Subject: [PATCH v2 0/7] fix fanotify issues with the series in v4.12

We discovered some problems in the latest fsnotify/fanotify codebase with
the help of a stress test (Xiong Zhou is working on upstreaming it to
fstests).

This series attempts to fix these.  With the patch applied the stress test
passes.

Please review/test.

Changes in v2 (only cosmetic fixes, no functional change):
 - split first patch into 3 parts to make it more readable
 - checkpatch fixes
 - added cleanup patch for fanotify

Thanks,
Miklos
