MOVE_SELF event does not get reported to a parent watching children
when a child is moved, but it can be reported to sb/mount mark or to
the moved inode itself with parent/name info if group is interested
in parent/name info.

Use the fsnotify_parent() helper to send a MOVE_SELF event and adjust
fsnotify() to handle the case of an event "on child" that should not
be sent to the watching parent's inode mark.

What I find strange about this is that the MOVE_SELF event will be reported
to the new parent under the new name (just due to the way how dentry
handling in vfs_rename() works). That seems rather arbitrary and I'm not
sure it would be useful? I guess anybody needing dir info with renames
will rather use FS_MOVED_FROM / FS_MOVED_TO where it is well defined?

So can we leave FS_MOVE_SELF as one of those cases that doesn't report
parent + name info?

I can live with that.
I didn't have a use case for it.
This patch may be dropped from the series without affecting the rest.

Thanks,

BTW, I checked my man page and it doesn't say anything about whether
parent fid and child fid can be reported together with MOVE_SELF.
The language is generic enough on that part.

Thanks,
Amir.

FYI, I pushed a commit to the LTP branch that adapts the test to MOVE_SELF
that does not report name and tested with this patch reverted.

The test now has less special cases when setting expected values,
which is generally a good sign ;-)

Thanks,
Amir.
