fsnotify: optimize FS_MODIFY events with no ignored masks
fsnotify() treats FS_MODIFY events specially - it does not skip them even if the FS_MODIFY event does not apear in the object's fsnotify mask. This is because send_to_group() checks if FS_MODIFY needs to clear ignored mask of marks. The common case is that an object does not have any mark with ignored mask and in particular, that it does not have a mark with ignored mask and without the FSNOTIFY_MARK_FLAG_IGNORED_SURV_MODIFY flag. Set FS_MODIFY in object's fsnotify mask during fsnotify_recalc_mask() if object has a mark with an ignored mask and without the FSNOTIFY_MARK_FLAG_IGNORED_SURV_MODIFY flag and remove the special treatment of FS_MODIFY in fsnotify(), so that FS_MODIFY events could be optimized in the common case. Call fsnotify_recalc_mask() from fanotify after adding or removing an ignored mask from a mark without FSNOTIFY_MARK_FLAG_IGNORED_SURV_MODIFY or when adding the FSNOTIFY_MARK_FLAG_IGNORED_SURV_MODIFY flag to a mark with ignored mask (the flag cannot be removed by fanotify uapi). Performance results for doing 10000000 write(2)s to tmpfs: vanilla patched without notification mark 25.486+-1.054 24.965+-0.244 with notification mark 30.111+-0.139 26.891+-1.355 So we can see the overhead of notification subsystem has been drastically reduced.
