Amir Goldstein a95aef69a7 fanotify: support reporting non-decodeable file handles
fanotify users do not always need to decode the file handles reported
with FAN_REPORT_FID.

Relax the restriction that filesystem needs to support NFS export and
allow reporting file handles from filesystems that only support ecoding
unique file handles.

Even filesystems that do not have export_operations at all can fallback
to use the default FILEID_INO32_GEN encoding, but we use the existence
of export_operations as an indication that the encoded file handles will
be sufficiently unique and that user will be able to compare them to
filesystem objects using AT_HANDLE_FID flag to name_to_handle_at(2).

For filesystems that do not support NFS export, users will have to use
the AT_HANDLE_FID of name_to_handle_at(2) if they want to compare the
object in path to the object fid reported in an event.
