[CIFS] Don't cache timestamps on utimes due to coarse granularity
force revalidate of the file when any of the timestamps are set since some filesytem types do not have finer granularity timestamps and we can not always detect which file systems round timestamps down to determine whether we can cache the mtime on setattr samba bugzilla 3775 Acked-by: Shirish Pargaonkar <sharishp@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Steve French <sfrench@us.ibm.com>
