[linux-cifs-client] Removing change notification on fd close

Obviously we want to cancel a CIFS change notification request when the
user closes the file handle or calls fcntl(fd, F_NOTIFY, 0). It doesn't
seem, however, that the kernel calls the filesystem specific dir_notify
function on this occasion. Shouldn't dnotify_flush be doing that? Or is
there another way to get the VFS module to handle it?
