destroy_list is used to track marks which still need waiting for srcu period end before they can be freed. However by the time mark is added to destroy_list it isn't in group's list of marks anymore and thus we can reuse fsnotify_mark->g_list for queueing into destroy_list. This saves two pointers for each fsnotify_mark.
