Paulo Alcantara b95cd1bdf5 smb: client: fix missing timestamp updates after utime(2)
Don't reuse open handle when changing timestamps to prevent the server
from disabling automatic timestamp updates as per MS-FSA 2.1.4.17.

import os
import time

filename = '/mnt/foo'

def print_stat(prefix):
    st = os.stat(filename)
    print(prefix, ': ', time.ctime(st.st_atime), time.ctime(st.st_ctime))

fd = os.open(filename, os.O_CREAT|os.O_TRUNC|os.O_WRONLY, 0o644)
print_stat('old')
os.utime(fd, None)
time.sleep(2)
os.write(fd, b'foo')
os.close(fd)
time.sleep(2)
print_stat('new')

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.
