    fanotify: implement "evictable" inode marks
    
    [ Upstream commit 7d5e005d982527e4029b0139823d179986e34cdc ]
    
    When an inode mark is created with flag FAN_MARK_EVICTABLE, it will not
    pin the marked inode to inode cache, so when inode is evicted from cache
    due to memory pressure, the mark will be lost.
    
    When an inode mark with flag FAN_MARK_EVICATBLE is updated without using
    this flag, the marked inode is pinned to inode cache.
    
    When an inode mark is updated with flag FAN_MARK_EVICTABLE but an
    existing mark already has the inode pinned, the mark update fails with
    error EEXIST.
    
    Evictable inode marks can be used to setup inode marks with ignored mask
    to suppress events from uninteresting files or directories in a lazy
    manner, upon receiving the first event, without having to iterate all
    the uninteresting files or directories before hand.
    
    The evictbale inode mark feature allows performing this lazy marks setup
    without exhausting the system memory with pinned inodes.
    
    This change does not enable the feature yet.
