    fsnotify: Allocate overflow events with proper type · ff57cd58
    Jan Kara authored
    Commit 7053aee2 "fsnotify: do not share events between notification
    groups" used overflow event statically allocated in a group with the
    size of the generic notification event. This causes problems because
    some code looks at type specific parts of event structure and gets
    confused by a random data it sees there and causes crashes.
    
    Fix the problem by allocating overflow event with type corresponding to
    the group type so code cannot get confused.
