Did you run the test with `CAP_SYS_ADMIN`? If so, did you test filesystem marks
or directory marks?

The "recursive" issue is that fanotify only improves upon the issues with
inotify if you can set a watch on a directory and receive all events on all of
its subdirectories - without needing to register more watches on each sub
directory. If this is not he case - as the man page definitely claim that it is
not (unless you use mount or filesystem marks) - then we're still stuck with
the race condition of a fast application (such as Ark) creating new directories
and immediately new directories within them, and Baloo will not see files
created in the sub directories.
