fanotify: fix logic of reporting name info with watched parent
The victim inode's parent and name info is required when an event needs to be delivered to a group interested in filename info OR when the inode's parent is interested in an event on its children. Let us call the first condition 'parent_needed' and the second condition 'parent_interested'. In fsnotify_parent(), the condition where the inode's parent is interested in some events on its children, but not necessarily interested the specific event is called 'parent_watched'. fsnotify_parent() tests the condition (!parent_watched && !parent_needed) for sending the event without parent and name info, which is correct. It then wrongly assumes that parent_watched implies !parent_needed and tests the condition (parent_watched && !parent_interested) for sending the event without parent and name info, which is wrong, because parent may still be needed by some group. For example, after initializing a group with FAN_REPORT_DFID_NAME and adding a FAN_MARK_MOUNT with FAN_OPEN mask, open events on non-directory children of "testdir" are delivered with file name info. After adding another mark to the same group on the parent "testdir" with FAN_CLOSE|FAN_EVENT_ON_CHILD mask, open events on non-directory children of "testdir" are no longer delivered with file name info. Fix the logic and use auxiliary variables to clarify the conditions.
