From: Eric Paris <eparis@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: fanotify: fix missing break
Anders Blomdell noted in 2010 that Fanotify lost events and provided a
test case. Eric Paris confirmed it was a bug and posted a fix to the list
https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/linux.kernel/RrJfTfyW2BE
but never applied it. Repeated attempts over time to actually get him to
apply it have never had a reply from anyone who has raised it
So apply it anyway
