    ext4: Send notifications on error
    
    [ Upstream commit 9a089b21f79b47eed240d4da7ea0d049de7c9b4d ]
    
    Send a FS_ERROR message via fsnotify to a userspace monitoring tool
    whenever a ext4 error condition is triggered.  This follows the existing
    error conditions in ext4, so it is hooked to the ext4_error* functions.
