kill ->dir_notify()
Remove the hopelessly misguided ->dir_notify(). The only instance (cifs)
has been broken by design from the very beginning; the objects it creates
are never destroyed, keep references to struct file they can outlive, nothing
that could possibly evict them exists on close(2) path *and* no locking
whatsoever is done to prevent races with close(), should the previous, er,
deficiencies someday be dealt with.
