fsnotify: remove the global masks
Because we walk the object->fsnotify_marks list instead of the global fsnotify groups list we don't need the fsnotify_inode_mask and fsnotify_vfsmount_mask as these were simply shortcuts in fsnotify() for performance. They are now extra checks, rip them out. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
