Jan, Reposting my slightly modified cleanup patch along with the patch from nixiaoming that uses it to add a new fanotify_init() flag. After a few review cycles with nixiaoming, per his request, I took his FAN_EVENT_INFO_TID patch to my tree, fixes a couple of issues including commit message wording and tested it. For me, the new API seems very intuitive, not sure why thread id was not reported to begin with, but if you like more concrete use cases, you will need to ask them from nixiaoming. Thanks, Amir.
