Amir acked whole patch some time ago, thus I guess he's not against this first one.
The original motivation was to do further modifications for libc wrapper vs.
syscall() for fanotify_init() and fanotify_mark(). But I guess even without
second commit it makes sense to have all fanotify helpers together.
We can always revert it if really need them as safe macros.
Kind regards,
Petr
