Hello,

this series addresses the problems I have identified when trying to understand
how exactly is kernel/audit_tree.c using generic fsnotify framework. I hope
I have understood all the interactions right but careful review is certainly
welcome (CCing Al as he was the one implementing this code originally).

The patches have been tested by a stress test I have written which mounts &
unmounts filesystems in the directory tree while adding and removing audit
rules for this tree in parallel and accessing the tree to generate events.
Still some real-world testing would be welcome.
