Title:
  Inotify is broken in saucy

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Compile this code:

  #include<sys/inotify.h>
  #include<stdio.h>
  #include<string.h>
  #include<errno.h>

  int main(int argc, char **argv) {
    int inotifyid = inotify_init();
    if(inotifyid == -1) {
      fprintf(stderr, "Could not init inotify.\n");
      return 1;
    }
    int wd = inotify_add_watch(inotifyid, argv[1],
              IN_CREATE | IN_DELETE_SELF | IN_DELETE | IN_CLOSE_WRITE |
              IN_MOVED_FROM | IN_MOVED_TO | IN_ONLYDIR);
    if(wd == -1) {
      fprintf(stderr, "Could not create inotify watch object: %s\n",
              strerror(errno));
      return 1;
    }
    return 0;
  }

  Run it like this: "./inotifyapp some/dir".

  On Saucy it prints this:

  Could not create inotify wath object: No space left on device

  The same happens on both btrfs and ext4 drives. The disk does have
  space and the same partition works when inotify is used from raring.

  This issue breaks e.g. Dropbox.
