A potential bug in inotify_user.c

Following comment is at fs/inotify_user.c:287
/* coalescing: drop this event if it is a dupe of the previous */

I think the previous event in the comment should be the last event in the
link list.  But inotify_dev_get_event return the first event in the list.
In addition, it doesn't check whether the list is empty
