fsnotify_flush_notify() and fanotify_release() destroy notification event while holding notification_mutex. The destruction of fanotify event includes a path_put() call which may end up calling into a filesystem to delete an inode if we happen to be the last holders of dentry reference which happens to be the last holder of inode reference. That in turn may violate lock ordering for some filesystems since notification_mutex is also acquired e. g. during write when generating fanotify event. Also this is the only thing that forces notification_mutex to be a sleeping lock. So drop notification_mutex before destroying a notification event.
