Currently, we copy the mtime and ctime to the in-core inode and then
mark the inode dirty. This is fine for certain types of filesystems, but
not all. Some require a real setattr to properly change these values
(e.g. ceph or reexported NFS).
Fix this code to call notify_change() instead, which is the proper way
to effect a setattr. There is one problem though:
In this case, the client is holding a write delegation and has sent us
attributes to update our cache. We don't want to break the delegation
for this since that would defeat the purpose. Add a new ATTR_DELEG flag
that makes notify_change bypass the try_break_deleg call.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
