Pushed as inotify09 with following changes:
* I've changed the test to use two threads and fzsync synchronization
library we implemented especially for triggering races between
syscalls
* Changed the licence to GPLv2+ which is default for LTP, I hope that
you do not mind
* Added .gitignore and runtest entries
Thanks.
