inotify: allow users to request not to recieve events on unlinked children

An inotify watch on a directory will send events for children even if those
children have been unlinked.  This patch add a new inotify flag IN_EXCL_UNLINK
which allows a watch to specificy they don't care about unlinked children.
This should fix performance problems seen by tasks which add a watch to
/tmp and then are overrun with events when other processes are reading and
writing to unlinked files they created in /tmp.
