[PATCH 06/10] fsnotify: use a mutex instead of a spinlock to protect a groups mark list

From: Lino Sanfilippo <LinoSanfilippo at gmx.de>
Replaces the groups mark_lock spinlock with a mutex. Using a mutex instead
of a spinlock results in more flexibility (i.e it allows to sleep while the
lock is held).
