+Subject: inotify: invalid mask should return a error number but not set it
+
+From: Zhao Hongjiang <zhaohongjiang@huawei.com>
+
+commit 04df32fa10ab9a6f0643db2949d42efc966bc844 upstream.
+
+When we run the crackerjack testsuite, the inotify_add_watch test is
+stalled.
+
+This is caused by the invalid mask 0 - the task is waiting for the event
+but it never comes.  inotify_add_watch() should return -EINVAL as it did
+before commit 676a0675cf92 ("inotify: remove broken mask checks causing
+unmount to be EINVAL").  That commit removes the invalid mask check, but
+that check is needed.
+
+Check the mask's ALL_INOTIFY_BITS before the inotify_arg_to_mask() call.
+If none are set, just return -EINVAL.
+
+Because IN_UNMOUNT is in ALL_INOTIFY_BITS, this change will not trigger
+the problem that above commit fixed.
