[PATCH v4 0/5] Fsnotify cleanup - part 2

[Amir Goldstein <amir73il@gmail.com>]

Jan,

This is the part of the series that was not merged to v4.18-rc1, after
addressing Linus' concerns.  We already had several review cycles on
the branch in my tree since v3, but this is 4th official posting.

Note that per your request, I changed fsnotify_obj_{inode,mount}
to fsnotify_conn_{inode,mount}, but that was easier to do after
the patch that introduces obj->conn, so the helpers
fsnotify_obj_{inode,mount} are added and then modified.

Thanks,
Amir.

Changes since v3:
- Some cleanup patches already merged to v4.18-rc1
- Replace struct fsnotify_obj with fsnotify_connp_t type
- Leave explicit connector pointer in struct inode (Linus)
- Use helper to get mask from any connector type

Amir Goldstein (5):
  fsnotify: use typedef fsnotify_connp_t for brevity
  fsnotify: pass connp and object type to fsnotify_add_mark()
  fsnotify: let connector point to an abstract object
  fsnotify: add helper to get mask from connector
  fanotify: factor out helpers to add/remove mark
