Thanks for looking into this Amir! I was thinking about this for a while and I'm not sure that __fsnotify_recalc_mask() call from fsnotify_put_mark() is the only place calling __fsnotify_recalc_mask() that can happen on detached connector. unlink(2) can get called pretty much at any time so places like inotify_update_existing_watch() can easily work on inode that is getting unlinked and by the time we get to fsnotify_recalc_mask(), we can pass detached connector to it AFAICT. conn->lock we hold in __fsnotify_recalc_mask() protecs us from fsnotify_detach_connector_from_object() so we can reliably check connector state in __fsnotify_recalc_mask() and just don't do anything when the connector is already detached without issuing a warning. What do you think?
