[ Upstream commit 6f73171e192366ff7c98af9fb50615ef9615f8a7 ]
Current code has an assumtion that fsnotify_notify_queue_is_empty() is
called to verify that queue is not empty before trying to peek or remove
an event from queue.
Remove this assumption by moving the fsnotify_notify_queue_is_empty()
into the functions, allow them to return NULL value and check return
value by all callers.
This is a prep patch for multi event queues.

[ Upstream commit 02f92b3868a1b34ab98464e76b0e4e060474ba10 ]
Add two simple helpers to check permissions on a file and path
respectively and convert over some callers. It simplifies quite a few
codepaths and also reduces the churn in later patches quite a bit.
Christoph also correctly points out that this makes codepaths (e.g.
ioctls) way easier to follow that would otherwise have to do more
complex argument passing than necessary.

[ Upstream commit ac7b79fd190b02e7151bc7d2b9da692f537657f3 ]
Currently the fs sysctl inotify/max_user_instances is used to limit the
number of inotify instances on the system. For systems running multiple
workloads, the per-user namespace sysctl max_inotify_instances can be
used to further partition inotify instances. However there is no easy
way to set a sensible system level max limit on inotify instances and
further partition it between the workloads. It is much easier to charge
the underlying resource (i.e. memory) behind the inotify instances to
the memcg of the workload and let their memory limits limit the number
of inotify instances they can create.
With inotify instances charged to memcg, the admin can simply set
max_user_instances to INT_MAX and let the memcg limits of the jobs limit
their inotify instances.

[ Upstream commit 92890123749bafc317bbfacbe0a62ce08d78efb7 ]
The default value of inotify.max_user_watches sysctl parameter was set
to 8192 since the introduction of the inotify feature in 2005 by
commit 0eeca28300df ("[PATCH] inotify"). Today this value is just too
small for many modern usage. As a result, users have to explicitly set
it to a larger value to make it work.
After some searching around the web, these are the
inotify.max_user_watches values used by some projects:
- vscode: 524288
- dropbox support: 100000
- users on stackexchange: 12228
- lsyncd user: 2000000
- code42 support: 1048576
- monodevelop: 16384
- tectonic: 524288
- openshift origin: 65536
Each watch point adds an inotify_inode_mark structure to an inode to
be watched. It also pins the watched inode.
Modeled after the epoll.max_user_watches behavior to adjust the default
value according to the amount of addressable memory available, make
inotify.max_user_watches behave in a similar way to make it use no more
than 1% of addressable memory within the range [8192, 1048576].
We estimate the amount of memory used by inotify mark to size of
inotify_inode_mark plus two times the size of struct inode (we double
the inode size to cover the additional filesystem private inode part).
That means that a 64-bit system with 128GB or more memory will likely
have the maximum value of 1048576 for inotify.max_user_watches. This
default should be big enough for most use cases.

Also remove the confusing comment about checking if a fd exists. I
could not find one instance in the entire kernel that still matches
the description or the reason for the name fcheck.
The need for better names became apparent in the last round of
discussion of this set of changes[1].
