Option: Don't watch unlinked children.
By default, when watching events on the children of a directory, events are generated for children even after they have been unlinked from the directory. This can result in large numbers of uninteresting events for some applications (e.g., if watching /tmp, in which many applications create temporary files whose names are immediately unlinked).
IN_EXCL_UNLINK changes this behavior, so that events are not generated for children after they have been unlinked from the watched directory.
