When an inode mark is created with flag FAN_MARK_EVICTABLE, it will not pin the marked inode to inode cache, so when inode is evicted from cache due to memory pressure, the mark will be lost. When an inode mark with flag FAN_MARK_EVICATBLE is updated without using this flag, the marked inode is pinned to inode cache. When an inode mark is updated with flag FAN_MARK_EVICTABLE but an existing mark already has the inode pinned, the mark update fails with error EEXIST. Evictable inode marks can be used to setup inode marks with ignored mask to suppress events from uninteresting files or directories in a lazy manner, upon receiving the first event, without having to iterate all the uninteresting files or directories before hand. The evictbale inode mark feature allows performing this lazy marks setup without exhausting the system memory with pinned inodes. This change does not enable the feature yet.
