 /*
  * fsnotify inode mark locking/lifetime/and refcnting
  *
  * REFCNT:
  * The mark->refcnt tells how many "things" in the kernel currently are
  * referencing this object.  The object typically will live inside the kernel
  * with a refcnt of 2, one for each list it is on (i_list, g_list).  Any task
  * which can find this object holding the appropriete locks, can take a reference
  * and the object itself is guaranteed to survive until the reference is dropped.
  *
  * LOCKING:
  * There are 3 spinlocks involved with fsnotify inode marks and they MUST
  * be taken in order as follows:
  *
  * mark->lock
  * group->mark_lock
  * inode->i_lock
  *
  * mark->lock protects 2 things, mark->group and mark->inode.  You must hold
  * that lock to dereference either of these things (they could be NULL even with
  * the lock)
  *
  * group->mark_lock protects the marks_list anchored inside a given group
  * and each mark is hooked via the g_list.  It also sorta protects the
  * free_g_list, which when used is anchored by a private list on the stack of the
  * task which held the group->mark_lock.
  *
  * inode->i_lock protects the i_fsnotify_marks list anchored inside a
  * given inode and each mark is hooked via the i_list. (and sorta the
  * free_i_list)
  *
  *
  * LIFETIME:
  * Inode marks survive between when they are added to an inode and when their
  * refcnt==0.
  *
  * The inode mark can be cleared for a number of different reasons including:
  * - The inode is unlinked for the last time.  (fsnotify_inode_remove)
  * - The inode is being evicted from cache. (fsnotify_inode_delete)
  * - The fs the inode is on is unmounted.  (fsnotify_inode_delete/fsnotify_unmount_inodes)
  * - Something explicitly requests that it be removed.  (fsnotify_destroy_mark)
  * - The fsnotify_group associated with the mark is going away and all such marks
  *   need to be cleaned up. (fsnotify_clear_marks_by_group)
  *
  * Worst case we are given an inode and need to clean up all the marks on that
  * inode.  We take i_lock and walk the i_fsnotify_marks safely.  For each
  * mark on the list we take a reference (so the mark can't disappear under us).
  * We remove that mark form the inode's list of marks and we add this mark to a
  * private list anchored on the stack using i_free_list;  At this point we no
  * longer fear anything finding the mark using the inode's list of marks.
  *
  * We can safely and locklessly run the private list on the stack of everything
  * we just unattached from the original inode.  For each mark on the private list
  * we grab the mark-> and can thus dereference mark->group and mark->inode.  If
  * we see the group and inode are not NULL we take those locks.  Now holding all
  * 3 locks we can completely remove the mark from other tasks finding it in the
  * future.  Remember, 10 things might already be referencing this mark, but they
  * better be holding a ref.  We drop our reference we took before we unhooked it
  * from the inode.  When the ref hits 0 we can free the mark.
  *
  * Very similarly for freeing by group, except we use free_g_list.
  *
  * This has the very interesting property of being able to run concurrently with
  * any (or all) other directions.
