[PATCH] inotify (3/5): add interfaces to kernel API

Add inotify_init_watch() so caller can use inotify_watch refcounts
before calling inotify_add_watch().

Add inotify_find_watch() to find an existing watch for an (ih,inode)
pair.  This is similar to inotify_find_update_watch(), but does not
update the watch's mask if one is found.

Add inotify_rm_watch() to remove a watch via the watch pointer instead
of the watch descriptor.
