Heinrich Schuchardt 820c12d5d6 fallocate: create FAN_MODIFY and IN_MODIFY events 
The fanotify and the inotify API can be used to monitor changes of the
file system.  System call fallocate() modifies files.  Hence it should
trigger the corresponding fanotify (FAN_MODIFY) and inotify (IN_MODIFY)
events.  The most interesting case is FALLOC_FL_COLLAPSE_RANGE because
this value allows to create arbitrary file content from random data.

This patch adds the missing call to fsnotify_modify().

The FAN_MODIFY and IN_MODIFY event will be created when fallocate()
succeeds.  It will even be created if the file length remains unchanged,
e.g.  when calling fanotify with flag FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE.

This logic was primarily chosen to keep the coding simple.

It resembles the logic of the write() system call.

When we call write() we always create a FAN_MODIFY event, even in the case
of overwriting with identical data.

Events FAN_MODIFY and IN_MODIFY do not provide any guarantee that data was
actually changed.

Furthermore even if if the filesize remains unchanged, fallocate() may
influence whether a subsequent write() will succeed and hence the
fallocate() call may be considered a modification.

The fallocate(2) man page teaches: After a successful call, subsequent
writes into the range specified by offset and len are guaranteed not to
fail because of lack of disk space.

So calling fallocate(fd, FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE, offset, len) may result in
different outcomes of a subsequent write depending on the values of offset
and len.
