+Subject: [PATCH] fanotify: fix notification of groups with inode & mount marks
+
+fsnotify() needs to merge inode and mount marks lists when notifying
+groups about events so that ignore masks from inode marks are reflected
+in mount mark notifications and groups are notified in proper order
+(according to priorities).
+
+Currently the sorting of the lists done by fsnotify_add_inode_mark() /
+fsnotify_add_vfsmount_mark() and fsnotify() differed which resulted
+ignore masks not being used in some cases.
+
+Fix the problem by always using the same comparison function when
+sorting / merging the mark lists.
+
+Thanks to Heinrich Schuchardt for improvements of my patch.
