Yeah. The f_count stuff is disgusting. This revert patch makes things
work for me again. And I suspect it's the right thing to do
regardless. I reacted to that ugly __fput() hackery when I pulled the
fanotify tree, but I let it slide. I clearly should have let my taste
guide me more.

fsnotify playing games with fput/fget is almost certainly totally wrong.

Al, what was the problem that caused you to think that we want to have
a 'struct file' here? Is it just the fact that some of those fsnotify
things use that 'path' structure that is embedded in the parent? But
isn't the simplest fix for that to just _copy_ the "struct path"
rather than pass the "struct file" around?

commit 2069601b3f0ea38170d4b509b89f3ca0a373bdc1
Author: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
Date: Thu Aug 12 14:23:04 2010 -0700

Revert "fsnotify: store struct file not struct path"

This reverts commit 3bcf3860a4ff9bbc522820b4b765e65e4deceb3e (and the
accompanying commit c1e5c954020e "vfs/fsnotify: fsnotify_close can delay
the final work in fput" that was a horribly ugly hack to make it work at
all).

The 'struct file' approach not only causes that disgusting hack, it
somehow breaks pulseaudio, probably due to some other subtlety with
f_count handling.

Fix up various conflicts due to later fsnotify work.
