	Hummm....  There's a bit of behaviour change; in case we fail in
may_open(), we used to get fsnotify_open()+fsnotify_close() and with that
patch we's get fsnotify_close() alone.

	IF we don't care about that, we might as well take fsnotify_open()
out of vfs_open() and, for do_open()/do_tmpfile()/do_o_path(), into
path_openat() itself.  I mean, having
        if (likely(!error)) {
                if (likely(file->f_mode & FMODE_OPENED)) {
			fsnotify_open(file);
                        return file;
		}
in there would be a lot easier to follow...  It would lose fsnotify_open()
in a few more failure exits, but if we don't give a damn about having it
paired with fsnotify_close()...
