Al,

Do you have a reproducer for reporting wrong names to inotify?

If not, do have a recipe I can try to follow to create a reproducer?
I would like to add this test to LTP.

Incidentally, I got some report on seeing unexpected names reported
from my fanotify_sb patches, so I will follow up on that reporrt to verify
that your patch fixes the problem.

Thanks,
Amir.
