Christian,

Apologies for the fast moving target.
I just force force the kernel+demo branches to include support for
the two extra events (delete and move) on mount mark.

3dd3d7f02717...6cfe8f7a9148 fanotify_userns -> fanotify_userns (forced update)

The same demo I described before with a mix of:
- CREATE event on MOUNT mark
- Rest of events on recursive inode marks
Still work when running demo script with --fanotify --recursive
on idmapped mount

But now the demo also works with --global on idmapped mount
by setting up only a mount mark to watch most events
excluding the unsupported events (see below).

Thanks,
Amir.
