dnotify: use fsnotify group lock helpers
Before commit 9542e6a643fc6 ("nfsd: Containerise filecache laundrette") nfsd would close open files in direct reclaim context. There is no guarantee that others memory shrinkers don't do the same and no guarantee that future shrinkers won't do that. For example, if overlayfs implements inode cache of fscache would keep open files to cached objects, inode shrinkers could end up closing open files to underlying fs. Direct reclaim from dnotify mark allocation context may try to close open files that have dnotify marks of the same group and hit a deadlock on mark_mutex. Set the FSNOTIFY_GROUP_NOFS flag to prevent going into direct reclaim from allocations under dnotify group lock and use the safe group lock helpers.
