bug#44639: [PATCH 2/2] autorevert: map each watch descriptor to a single buffer

[Spencer Baugh]

Now that we don't share watch descriptors between buffers, we don't
need to store a list of buffers for each watch descriptor - there
would only be a single buffer in each list. This should have no
functional change.
