fsnotify: Retrieve super block from the data field
Some file system events (i.e. FS_ERROR) might not be associated with an inode or directory. For these, we can retrieve the super block from the data field. But, since the super_block is available in the data field on every event type, simplify the code to always retrieve it from there, through a new helper.
