fanotify: fix notification of groups with inode & mount marks 

fsnotify() needs to merge inode and mount marks lists when notifying
groups about events so that ignore masks from inode marks are reflected
in mount mark notifications and groups are notified in proper order
(according to priorities).

Currently the sorting of the lists done by fsnotify_add_inode_mark() /
fsnotify_add_vfsmount_mark() and fsnotify() differed which resulted
ignore masks not being used in some cases.

Fix the problem by always using the same comparison function when
sorting / merging the mark lists.

Thanks to Heinrich Schuchardt for improvements of my patch.

 * Sorting function for lists of fsnotify marks.

 * Fanotify supports different notification classes (reflected as priority of

 * decreasing priority order. To achieve this marks in notification lists for

 * inodes and vfsmounts are sorted so that priorities of corresponding groups

 * are descending.

 *

 * Furthermore correct handling of the ignore mask requires processing inode

 * and vfsmount marks of each group together. Using the group address as

 * further sort criterion provides a unique sorting order and thus we can

 * merge inode and vfsmount lists of marks in linear time and find groups

 * present in both lists.

 *

 * A return value of 1 signifies that b has priority over a.

 * A return value of 0 signifies that the two marks have to be handled together.

 * A return value of -1 signifies that a has priority over b.
