Subject: nfsd4: factor ctime into change attribute
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=630458e730b82efe1f6eb90e6bcabad02fe76e20;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

nfsd4: factor ctime into change attribute

Factoring ctime into the nfsv4 change attribute gives us better
properties than just i_version alone.

Eventually we'll likely also expose this (as opposed to raw i_version)
to userspace, at which point we'll want to move it to a common helper,
called from either userspace or individual filesystems.  For now, nfsd
is the only user.
