The test tool seems to be a bit outdated wrt the current series. It took me
quite a while to debug why HSM isn't working with it (eventually I've
tracked it down to the changes in struct fanotify_event_info_range...).
Anyway all seems to be working (after fixing up some missing export), I've
pushed out the result I have to:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jack/linux-fs.git fsnotify

and will push it to linux-next as well so that it gets some soaking before
the merge window. That being said I'd still like to get explicit ack from
XFS folks (hint) so don't patches may still rebase due to that.
