commit 702eb71fd6 upstream.
Currently we will not generate FS_OPEN events for O_PATH file
descriptors but we will generate FS_CLOSE events for them. This is
asymmetry is confusing. Arguably no fsnotify events should be generated
for O_PATH file descriptors as they cannot be used to access or modify
file content, they are just convenient handles to file objects like
paths. So fix the asymmetry by stopping to generate FS_CLOSE for O_PATH
file descriptors.
