------------------------------------------------------
From: Heinrich Schuchardt <xypron.glpk@xxxxxx>
Subject: fs/notify/fanotify/fanotify_user.c: fix FAN_MARK_FLUSH flag checking

If fanotify_mark is called with illegal value of arguments flags and marks
it usually returns EINVAL.

When fanotify_mark is called with FAN_MARK_FLUSH the argument flags is not
checked for irrelevant flags like FAN_MARK_IGNORED_MASK.

The patch removes this inconsistency.

If an irrelevant flag is set error EINVAL is returned.
