notification_mutex is used to protect the list of pending events. As
such there's no reason to use a sleeping lock for it. Convert it to a
spinlock.

Hi,

this is a second version of the series to fix the list corruption for
fanotify permission events Miklos has reported. Since V1 I have addressed
Miklos' and Lino's comments added some tags and also added patches fixing
the false WARN_ON Miklos has spotted during his review.

I think the first two patches are good to go - Andrew, can you please merge
them. For the other four (fixing the theoretical barrier issue), I'd prefer
to get some review.

								Honza
