inotify: inotify_destroy_mark_entry could get called twice

inotify_destroy_mark_entry could get called twice for the same mark since it
is called directly in inotify_rm_watch and when the mark is being destroyed for
another reason.  As an example assume that the file being watched was just
deleted so inotify_destroy_mark_entry would get called from the path
fsnotify_inoderemove() -> fsnotify_destroy_marks_by_inode() ->
fsnotify_destroy_mark_entry() -> inotify_destroy_mark_entry().  If this
happened at the same time as userspace tried to remove a watch via
inotify_rm_watch we could attempt to remove the mark from the idr twice and
could thus double dec the ref cnt and potentially could be in a use after
free/double free situation.  The fix is to have inotify_rm_watch use the
generic recursive safe fsnotify_destroy_mark_by_entry() so we are sure the
inotify_destroy_mark_entry() function can only be called one.

This patch also renames the function to inotify_ingored_remove_idr() so it is
clear what is actually going on in the function.

Hopefully this fixes:
