fanotify fastpath handler enables handling fanotify events within the
kernel, and thus saves a trip to the user space. fanotify fastpath handler
can be useful in many use cases. For example, if a user is only interested
in events for some files in side a directory, a fastpath handler can be
used to filter out irrelevant events.

fanotify fastpath handler is attached to fsnotify_group. At most one
fastpath handler can be attached to a fsnotify_group. The attach/detach
of fastpath handlers are controlled by two new ioctls on the fanotify fds:
FAN_IOC_ADD_FP and FAN_IOC_DEL_FP.

fanotify fastpath handler is packaged in a kernel module. In the future,
it is also possible to package fastpath handler in a BPF program. Since
loading modules requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN, _loading_ fanotify fastpath
handler in kernel modules is limited to CAP_SYS_ADMIN. However,
non-SYS_CAP_ADMIN users can _attach_ fastpath handler loaded by sys admin
to their fanotify fds. To make fanotify fastpath handler more useful
for non-CAP_SYS_ADMIN users, a fastpath handler can take arguments at
attach time.

TODO: Add some mechanism to help users discover available fastpath
handlers. For example, we can add a sysctl which is similar to
net.ipv4.tcp_available_congestion_control, or we can add some sysfs
entries.

This should probably be a compile-time option. Some people might be
spooked by this and we'd want a way to disable it if it was found to
cause a big issue later.

This would be a nice place for a doc header that describes what all of
these fields represent. Most of it should probably be the same as the
comment header over the struct fsnotify_ops definition:

Ditto here. This should have a kerneldoc comment that describes the
purpose, arguments and the "contract" around these new operations.

Otherwise, this looks fairly straightforward. Nice work, Song!

Hum, I'm not sure I'd be fine as an sysadmin to allow arbitary users to
attach arbitrary filters to their groups. I might want some filters for
priviledged programs which know what they are doing (e.g. because the
filters are expensive) and other filters may be fine for anybody. But
overall I'd think we'll soon hit requirements for permission control over
who can attach what... Somebody must have created a solution for this
already?

I have "flags" in fanotify_fastpath_ops. In an earlier version of my 
local code, I actually have "SYS_ADMIN_ONLY" flag that specifies some
filters are only available to users with CAP_SYS_ADMIN. I removed this 
flag later before sending the first RFC for simplicity. 

The model here (fast path loaded in kernel modules) is similar to 
different TCP congestion control algorithms. Regular user can choose 
which algorithm to use for each TCP connection. This model is 
straightforward because the kernel modules are global. With BPF, we 
have the option not to add the fast path to a global list, so that 
whoever loads the fast path can attach it to specific group (I didn't
include this model in the RFC).

For the first version, I think a SYS_ADMIN_ONLY flag would be good
