fsnotify: fold fsnotify() call into fsnotify_parent()
All (two) callers of fsnotify_parent() also call fsnotify() to notify the child inode. Move the second fsnotify() call into fsnotify_parent(). This will allow more flexibility in making decisions about which of the two event falvors should be sent. Using 'goto notify_child' in the inline helper seems a bit strange, but it mimics the code in __fsnotify_parent() for clarity and the goto pattern will become less strage after following patches are applied.
