fsnotify: use an explicit flag to indicate fsnotify_destroy_mark has been called
Currently fsnotify check is mark->group is NULL to decide if fsnotify_destroy_mark() has already been called or not. With the upcoming rcu work it is a heck of a lot easier to use an explicit flag than worry about group being set to NULL. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
