The logic for handling events on child in groups that have a mark on
the parent inode, but without FS_EVENT_ON_CHILD flag in the mask is
duplicated in several places and inconsistent.
Move the logic into the preparation of mark type iterator, so that the
parent mark type will be excluded from all mark type iterations in that
case.
This results in several subtle changes of behavior, hopefully all
desired changes of behavior, for example:
- Group A has a mount mark with FS_MODIFY in mask
- Group A has a mark with ignore mask that does not survive FS_MODIFY
and does not watch children on directory D.
- Group B has a mark with FS_MODIFY in mask that does watch children
on directory D.
- FS_MODIFY event on file D/foo should not clear the ignore mask of
group A, but before this change it does
And if group A ignore mask was set to survive FS_MODIFY:
- FS_MODIFY event on file D/foo should be reported to group A on account
of the mount mark, but before this change it is wrongly ignored

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.
