Title:
  Fanotify blocks any write operation to CIFS mounted volumes for about
  10-15 secs

Status in “linux-lts-raring” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Whenever we use Fanotify to monitor "CIFS" mounted volumes and
  try to write to a new file by doing:

  echo "ABC" > /mnt/cifs/test.c

  It takes around 10-15 secs to complete the write operation.

  This happens only when we try to monitor "FAN_OPEN_PERM". Looks like
  "FAN_OPEN_PERM" blocks and notifies only after 10-15 secs.
