mainlining shenanigans
b1e4603b92
Audit tree code is replacing marks attached to inodes in non-atomic way. Thus fsnotify_find_mark() in tag_chunk() may find a mark that belongs to a chunk that is no longer valid one and will soon be destroyed. Tags added to such chunk will be simply lost. Fix the problem by making sure old mark is marked as going away (through fsnotify_detach_mark()) before dropping mark_mutex and thus in an atomic way wrt tag_chunk(). Note that this does not fix the problem completely as if tag_chunk() finds a mark that is going away, it fails with -ENOENT. But at least the failure is not silent and currently there's no way to search for another fsnotify mark attached to the inode. We'll fix this problem in later patch.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
