Just for the records, when I apply both patches 1/2 and 2/2,
autorevert-tests fails. So it cannot be applied as such.

Using just patch 1/2 works for the inotify backend. I'll continue to
test. I recommend you to test also your patches by calling

$ make -C test autorevert-tests

Best regards, Michael.
