This define is part of the vfs API it should be in an include file along side
FSNOTIFY_ADD_MODIFY_MARK (if we keep them in the API).

Please split the patch that introduces the API from the FUSE implementation.

Regarding the API, group does not belong in this interface.
The inode object has an "aggregated mask" at i_fsnotify_mask
indicating an interest for an event from any group.
Remote servers should be notified when the aggregated mask changes.

Hence, Miklos has proposed a "remote fsnotify update" API which does
not carry the mask nor the action, only the watched object:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-fsdevel/20190501205541.GC30899@veci.piliscsaba.redhat.com/

On that same thread, you will see that I also proposed the API to support
full filesystem watch (by passing sb).
I am not requiring that you implement sb watch for FUSE/virtiofs, but the
API should take this future extension into account.

Thanks,
Amir.
