[RFC PATCH 3/3] xfs: mark the inode for high-res timestamp update in getattr

From: Jeff Layton
Date: Tue Apr 11 2023 - 10:28:04 EST


When the mtime or ctime is being queried via getattr, ensure that we
mark the inode for a high-res timestamp update on the next pass. Also,
switch to current_cmtime for other c/mtime updates.

With this change, we're better off having the NFS server just ignore
the i_version field and have it use the ctime instead, so clear the
STATX_CHANGE_COOKIE flag in the result mask in ->getattr.
