For the general API, I'm still in favor to add the file being watched to
the watch descriptor. I'll need it anyway for the Tramp file name
handler, and it would serve here as well. But this we can discuss when
it comes to the general API.

For the time being, we could use file-equal-p instead of string-equal in
autorevert.el.

Best regards, Michael.
