Merge tag 'fsnotify_for_v5.7-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jack/linux-fs

Pull fsnotify updates from Jan Kara:
 "This implements the fanotify FAN_DIR_MODIFY event.

  This event reports the name in a directory under which a change
  happened and together with the directory filehandle and fstatat()
  allows reliable and efficient implementation of directory
  synchronization"

* tag 'fsnotify_for_v5.7-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jack/linux-fs:
  fanotify: Fix the checks in fanotify_fsid_equal
  fanotify: report name info for FAN_DIR_MODIFY event
  fanotify: record name info for FAN_DIR_MODIFY event
  fanotify: Drop fanotify_event_has_fid()
  fanotify: prepare to report both parent and child fid's
  fanotify: send FAN_DIR_MODIFY event flavor with dir inode and name
  fanotify: divorce fanotify_path_event and fanotify_fid_event
  fanotify: Store fanotify handles differently
  fanotify: Simplify create_fd()
  fanotify: fix merging marks masks with FAN_ONDIR
  fanotify: merge duplicate events on parent and child
  fsnotify: replace inode pointer with an object id
  fsnotify: simplify arguments passing to fsnotify_parent()
  fsnotify: use helpers to access data by data_type
  fsnotify: funnel all dirent events through fsnotify_name()
  fsnotify: factor helpers fsnotify_dentry() and fsnotify_file()
