inotify: simplify subdirectory registration with register_sysctl()

There is no need to user boiler plate code to specify a set of base
directories we're going to stuff sysctls under.  Simplify this by using
register_sysctl() and specifying the directory path directly.

Move inotify_user sysctl to inotify_user.c while at it to remove clutter
from kernel/sysctl.c.

[mcgrof@kernel.org: update commit log to reflect new path we decided to take]
