[PATCH] inotify (1/5): split kernel API from userspace support

The following series of patches introduces a kernel API for inotify,
making it possible for kernel modules to benefit from inotify's
mechanism for watching inodes.  With these patches, inotify will
maintain for each caller a list of watches (via an embedded struct
inotify_watch), where each inotify_watch is associated with a
corresponding struct inode.  The caller registers an event handler and
specifies for which filesystem events their event handler should be
called per inotify_watch.
