Jan Kara 53136b393c fanotify: Select EXPORTFS
Fanotify now uses exportfs_encode_inode_fh() so it needs to select
EXPORTFS.

Say Y here to enable fanotify support. fanotify is a file access
notification system which differs from inotify in that it sends
an open file descriptor to the userspace listener along with
the event.
If unsure, say Y.
config FANOTIFY_ACCESS_PERMISSIONS
bool "fanotify permissions checking"
depends on FANOTIFY
depends on SECURITY
default n
---help---
Say Y here is you want fanotify listeners to be able to make permissions
decisions concerning filesystem events. This is used by some fanotify
listeners which need to scan files before allowing the system access to
use those files. This is used by some anti-malware vendors and by some
hierarchical storage management systems.
If unsure, say N.
