------------------------------------------------------
Subject: inotify: allow watch removal from event handler
From: Amy Griffis <amy.griffis@xxxxxx>


Allow callers to remove watches from their event handler via
inotify_remove_watch_locked().  This functionality can be used to achieve
IN_ONESHOT-like functionality for a subset of events in the mask.
