[PATCH 6/7] fsnotify: introduce locked versions of fsnotify_add_mark() and fsnotify_remove_mark()

From: Lino Sanfilippo
Date: Fri Feb 11 2011 - 05:41:04 EST


This patch introduces fsnotify_add_mark_locked() and fsnotify_remove_mark_locked()
which are essentially the same as fsnotify_add_mark and fsnotify_remove_mark() but
assume that the caller has already taken the groups mark mutex.
