Looks mostly good to me. Just one question / suggestion: You are
introducing helpers fsnotify_ignore_mask() and fsnotify_ignored_events().
So shouldn't we be using these helpers as much as possible throughout the
code? Because in several places I had to check the code around whether
using mark->ignore_mask directly is actually fine. In particular:

So for example here I'm wondering whether a helper should not be used...

Especially because here if say FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD becomes a part of
marks_ignore_mask it can result in clearing this flag in the returned
'mask' which is likely not what we want if there are some events left
unignored in the 'mask'?

And I'm wondering about similar things here...
