No, because by the same token, 64-bits might not be enough.

We thought long and hard about making the mask 64-bit in the kernel.  We
picked 32-bit; it is more than big enough and makes portability simple.

Also, unless glibc is going to thunk every inotify_event structure into
a new inotify_event structure, with a u64 mask field, ushering in a
world of awful performance, it is a nonissue.
