Subject: ANDROID: vfs: d_canonical_path for stacked FS
Inotify does not currently know when a filesystem is acting as a wrapper
around another fs. This means that inotify watchers will miss any
modifications to the base file, as well as any made in a separate stacked
fs that points to the same file.
d_canonical_path solves this problem by allowing the fs to map a dentry to
a path in the lower fs. Inotify can use it to find the appropriate place to
watch to be informed of all changes to a file.
