Seriously?  stat(2), have it go away from dcache on memory pressure,
lather, rinse, repeat...  Won't *snotify get confused by the stream
of creations of the same thing, with not a removal in sight?

What will happen when that thing gets evicted from dcache,
gets looked up again, and again, and...?

Same re snotify confusion...

	Can that ever happen?  I mean, why set ->i_op to something that
has this for ->lookup() on a directory without TRACEFS_EVENT_INODE in
its inode?  It's not as if you ever removed that flag...

Out of curiosity - can that happen now?  You've got exclusion with
eventfs_remove_rec(), so you shouldn't be able to catch the moment
between setting ->is_freed and removal from the list...

Huh?  Just return NULL and be done with that - you'll get an
unhashed negative dentry and let the caller turn that into
-ENOENT...
