INotifyWatcher hold inotify watch descriptors map `wd -> path` and after an `unwatch` call the descriptor is deleted from the map. In some cases, if a lot of events are raised, it may cause race condition when the descriptor has been deleted, but event with this descriptor has already been queued. In that case INotifyWatcher doesn't know the path and just ignore the event fixes notify-rs#678

Thanks, @riberk. This looks very good. I can merge it now, or you can fix the typo first. Your call. |

@riberk I think this would be a good time to make a new release - unless you are working on something else. |

I will make the release. Just wanted to make sure I don't release while you are still working on something. I'll wait with the release until my latest MR is merged as well, though. |
