inotify: fix locking around inotify watching in the idr
The are races around the idr storage of inotify watches. It's possible that a watch could be found from sys_inotify_rm_watch() in the idr, but it could be removed from the idr before that code does it's removal. Move the locking and the refcnt'ing so that these have to happen atomically. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
