I did some changes here as well. See below:

I find it confusing that fsnotify_object_watched() does not take parent
into account while fsnotify_file_object_watched() does. Furthermore the
naming doesn't very well reflect the fact we are actually returning a mask
of events. I've ended up dropping this helper (it's used in a single place
anyway) and instead doing the same directly in file_set_fsnotify_mode().
