fanotify:drop notification if they exist in the outgoing queue

Browse source

fanotify listeners get an open file descriptor to the object in question so
the ordering of operations is not as important as in other notification
systems.  inotify will drop events if the last event in the event FIFO is
the same as the current event.  This patch will drop fanotify events if
they are the same as another event anywhere in the event FIFO.
