Jan Kara 9f16d2e624 audit_tree: Remove mark->lock locking
Currently, audit_tree code uses mark->lock to protect against detaching
of mark from an inode. In most places it however also uses
mark->group->mark_mutex (as we need to atomically replace attached
marks) and this provides protection against mark detaching as well. So
just remove protection with mark->lock from audit tree code and replace
it with mark->group->mark_mutex protection in all the places. It
simplifies the code and gets rid of some ugly catches like calling
fsnotify_add_mark_locked() with mark->lock held (which cannot sleep only
because we hold a reference to another mark attached to the same inode).

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
