[PATCH 1/3] orangefs: clean up truncate ctime and mtime setting

From: Martin Brandenburg
Date: Mon Apr 04 2016 - 16:27:38 EST


From: Martin Brandenburg <martin@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

The ctime and mtime are always updated on a successful ftruncate and
only updated on a successful truncate where the size changed.

We handle the ``if the size changed'' bit.

This matches FUSE's behavior.
