[PATCH] inotify: IN_DELETE events missing

IN_DELETE events are no longer generated for the removal of a file from a
watched directory.

This seems to be a result of clearing DCACHE_INOTIFY_PARENT_WATCHED in
d_delete() directly before calling fsnotify_nameremove().

Assuming the flag doesn't need to be cleared before dentry_iput(), this
should do the trick.
