Because fanotify10 checks for a bug that existed since the beginning
and fixed by 9bdda4e9cf2d fsnotify: fix ignore mask logic in fsnotify().
So test SHOULD fail until the backported patch is applied to the old kernel.

The patch does not apply cleanly to kernels <= v4.17.
Tested backport patch for v4.14.y attached.
