Amir Goldstein 955fbe0ef1 Revert "fsnotify: generate pre-content permission event on page fault"
This reverts commit 8392bc2ff8.

In the use case of buffered write whose input buffer is mmapped file on a
filesystem with a pre-content mark, the prefaulting of the buffer can
happen under the filesystem freeze protection (obtained in vfs_write())
which breaks assumptions of pre-content hook and introduces potential
deadlock of HSM handler in userspace with filesystem freezing.

Now that we have pre-content hooks at file mmap() time, disable the
pre-content event hooks on page fault to avoid the potential deadlock.
