Hum, but this one rather seems as a problem / false positive in __kmalloc()
itself, not in the inotify code...

Hum, the data looks correct from the first look and the stack trace
doesn't show anything unusual either so it looks like a false positive to
me. It may deserve a closer investigation though.
