inotify and dnotify are always interested in events on directories. fanotify is interested in events on directories only if user requested them by flag FAN_ONDIR. For the fanotify supported events on directories (open/access/close), if there is no inotify/dnotify associated marks and if none of the associated fanotify marks have the FS_ISDIR flag, we can skip iterating the marks and we avoid taking the srcu_read_lock() for all events on directories. In order to enable this check in fsnotify() we set the FS_ISDIR flag explicitly on all dnotify/inotify marks.
