6ad2d4e3e9 fsnotify: implement ordering between notifiers
fanotify needs to be able to specify that some groups get events before
others.  They use this idea to make sure that a hierarchical storage
manager gets access to files before programs which actually use them.  This
is purely infrastructure.  Everything will have a priority of 0, but the
infrastructure will exist for it to be non-zero.

700307a29a fsnotify: use an explicit flag to indicate fsnotify_destroy_mark has been called
Currently fsnotify check is mark->group is NULL to decide if
fsnotify_destroy_mark() has already been called or not.  With the upcoming
rcu work it is a heck of a lot easier to use an explicit flag than worry
about group being set to NULL.

a4c6e9961f fsnotify: use _rcu functions for mark list traversal
In preparation for srcu locking use all _rcu appropiete functions for mark
list addition, removal, and traversal.  The operations are still done under a
spinlock at the end of this patch.

0c6532e4e3 fsnotify: place marks on object in order of group memory address
fsnotify_marks currently are placed on objects (inodes or vfsmounts) in
arbitrary order.  This patch places them in order of the group memory address.

e4e047a220 fsnotify: update gfp/slab.h includes
Implicit slab.h inclusion via percpu.h is about to go away.  Make sure
gfp.h or slab.h is included as necessary.

4d92604cc9 fanotify: clear all fanotify marks
fanotify listeners may want to clear all marks.  They may want to do this
to destroy all of their inode marks which have nothing but ignores.
Realistically this is useful for av vendors who update policy and want to
clear all of their cached allows.

0d48b7f01f fsnotify: vfsmount marks generic functions
Much like inode-mark.c has all of the code dealing with marks on inodes
this patch adds a vfsmount-mark.c which has similar code but is intended
for marks on vfsmounts.
