fanotify: allow users to set an ignored_mask

Browse source

Change the sys_fanotify_mark() system call so users can set ignored_masks
on inodes.  Remember, if a user new sets a real mask, and only sets ignored
masks, the ignore will never be pinned in memory.  Thus ignored_masks can
be lost under memory pressure and the user may again get events they
previously thought were ignored.
