xfs: implement ->dirty_inode to fix timestamp handling
This is picking up on Felix's repost of Dave's patch to implement a .dirty_inode method. We really need this notification because the VFS keeps writing directly into the inode structure instead of going through methods to update this state. In addition to the long-known atime issue we now also have a caller in VM code that updates c/mtime that way for shared writeable mmaps. And I found another one that no one has noticed in practice in the FIFO code. So implement ->dirty_inode to set i_update_core whenever the inode gets externally dirtied, and switch the c/mtime handling to the same scheme we already use for atime (always picking up the value from the Linux inode). Note that this patch also removes the xfs_synchronize_atime call in xfs_reclaim it was superflous as we already synchronize the time when writing the inode via the log (xfs_inode_item_format) or the normal buffers (xfs_iflush_int). In addition also remove the I_CLEAR check before copying the Linux timestamps - now that we always have the Linux inode available we can always use the timestamps in it. Also switch to just using file_update_time for regular reads/writes - that will get us all optimization done to it for free and make sure we notice early when it breaks.
