  * Fix inotify watch code to remove any existing watch before beginning rule
    processing, and not to add the watch until the rule processing is
    complete. This stops us "chasing our own tail" if one of the programs we
    run writes to the block device, or at least opens it for writing.
    LP: #332270

  * Fix inotify code to respond to all events, rather than just the first in
    the buffer repeatedly. Ironically this bug was causing fewer people to be
    affected by #332270.
