fsnotify: disable pre-content and permission events by default
After introducing pre-content events, we had a regression related to
disabling huge faults on files that should never have pre-content events
enabled.
This happened because the default f_mode of allocated files (0) does
not disable pre-content events.
Pre-content events are disabled in file_set_fsnotify_mode_by_watchers()
but internal files may not get to call this helper.
Initialize f_mode to disable permission and pre-content events for all
files and if needed they will be enabled for the callers of
file_set_fsnotify_mode_by_watchers().
Fixes: 20bf82a898b6 ("mm: don't allow huge faults for files with pre content watches")
