Currently in fsnotify_put_group() the ref count of a group is decremented and if it becomes 0 fsnotify_destroy_group() is called. Since a groups ref count is only at group creation set to 1 and never increased after that a call to fsnotify_put_group() always results in a call to fsnotify_destroy_group(). With this patch fsnotify_destroy_group() is called directly.
