Hi All,

First of all, apologies for the delay: illness ruled out my plans
for having this out for a review as intended.

Anyway this is an updated version of the patchset for generic filesystem
events interface [1][2], hopefully handling issues raised during the previous
run.

Changes from v2:
	- Switched to kref for reference counting
	- Support for the events has been made optional (config option)
	- Use dynamically assigned id for multicast group instead of
	  using static one
	- Verify if there are any net listeners prior to sending the msg
	- Make the interface more namespace-aware (handling mount dropped
	  and showing the content of config file). As for the network
	  namespaces - as before only the init net namespace is being
	  supported.

Changes from v1:
	- Improved synchronization: switched to RCU accompanied with
	  ref counting mechanism
	- Limiting scope of supported event types along with default
	  event codes
	- Slightly modified configuration (event types followed by arguments
	  where required)
	- Updated documentation
	- Unified naming for netlink attributes
	- Updated netlink message format to include dev minor:major numbers
	  despite the filesystem type
	- Switched to single cmd id for messages
	- Removed the per-config-entry ids
