Audit tree code currently associates new fsnotify mark with each new chunk. As chunk attached to an inode is replaced when new tag is added / removed, we also need to remove old fsnotify mark and add a new one on such occasion. This is cumbersome and makes locking rules somewhat difficult to follow. Fix these problems by allocating fsnotify mark independently of chunk and keeping it all the time while there is some chunk attached to an inode. Also add documentation about the locking rules so that things are easier to follow.

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.
