+ * Basic idea behind the notification queue: An fsnotify group (like inotify)
+ * sends the userspace notification about events asyncronously some time after
+ * the event happened. When inotify gets an event it will need to add that
+ * event to the group notify queue. Since a single event might need to be on
+ * multiple group's notification queues we can't add the event directly to each
+ * queue and instead add a small "event_holder" to each queue. This event_holder
+ * has a pointer back to the original event. Since the majority of events are
+ * going to end up on one, and only one, notification queue we embed one
+ * event_holder into each event. This means we have a single allocation instead
+ * of always needing two. If the embedded event_holder is already in use by
+ * another group a new event_holder (from fsnotify_event_holder_cachep) will be
+ * allocated and used.
