Eric Paris 9e66e4233d fanotify: permissions and blocking
This is the backend work needed for fanotify to support the new
FS_OPEN_PERM and FS_ACCESS_PERM fsnotify events.  This is done using the
new fsnotify secondary queue.  No userspace interface is provided actually
respond to or request these events.

Paul Mundt ef601a9cfd fanotify: select ANON_INODES.
fanotify references anon_inode_getfd(), which is only available with
ANON_INODES enabled. Presently this bails out with the following:

  LD      vmlinux
fs/built-in.o: In function `sys_fanotify_init':
(.text+0x26d1c): undefined reference to `anon_inode_getfd'
make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1

which is trivially corrected by adding an ANON_INODES select.

Eric Paris ff0b16a985 fanotify: fscking all notification system
fanotify is a novel file notification system which bases notification on
giving userspace both an event type (open, close, read, write) and an open
file descriptor to the object in question.  This should address a number of
races and problems with other notification systems like inotify and dnotify
and should allow the future implementation of blocking or access controlled
notification.  These are useful for on access scanners or hierachical storage
management schemes.

This patch just implements the basics of the fsnotify functions.
