      fsnotify: allow addition of duplicate fsnotify marks
      audit: reimplement audit_trees using fsnotify rather than inotify

Stephen / Eric,

I too am facing similar issue on both Power and x86.
Culprit seems to be 2nd patch in the above list.

commit e1b79967e2b29839d16c12b534597a15d8630fc4
audit: convert audit watches to use fsnotify instead of inotify

I wasn't able to remove only patch 2 because of dependencies
on other patches. After i reverted patches 2 to 7 in the above
list, i was able to boot the machine. Then i applied patch 2
and the machine failed to boot.

Thanks
