Rename s_fsnotify_inode_refs to s_fsnotify_conectors and count all
objects with attached connectors, not only inodes with attached
connectors.

This will be used to optimize fsnotify() calls on sb without any
type of marks.

I noticed that you haven't provided an explicit case when no conditions are
matched, however this scenario appears to be handled in
fsnotify_put_sb_connectors() below. Why is this the case here and not in
fsnotify_put_sb_connectors()?

Also, I'm wondering if these blocks of code would be better expressed in a
switch statement. Alternatively, if these conditionals are shared across
the two helpers, why not factor out the super_block retrieval into an
inline helper just to simplify the callsite and not duplicate code? That's
of course if there is commonality between the two helpers.

I think this is wrong and will deadlock unmount if there's pending sb mark
because s_fsnotify_connectors won't drop to 0. I think you need to move
this wait to fsnotify_sb_delete() after fsnotify_clear_marks_by_sb().

Otherwise the patch looks good to me.

No reason. I fixed a warning reported by a static checker here and didn't
notice the other one.
