fanotify: limit the number of marks in a single fanotify group
There is currently no limit on the number of marks a given fanotify group can have. Since fanotify is gated on CAP_SYS_ADMIN this was not seen as a serious DoS threat. This patch implements a default of 8192, the same as inotify to work towards removing the CAP_SYS_ADMIN gating and eliminating the default DoS'able status.
