fs: handle delegated timestamps in setattr_copy_mgtime
An update to the inode ctime typically requires the latest clock
value possible. The exception to this rule is when there is a nfsd write
delegation and the server is proxying timestamps from the client.

When nfsd gets a CB_GETATTR response, update the timestamp value in the
inode to the values that the client is tracking. The client doesn't send
a ctime value (since that's always determined by the exported
filesystem), but it can send a mtime value. In the case where it does,
update the ctime to a value commensurate with that instead of the
current time.

If ATTR_DELEG is set, then use ia_ctime value instead of setting the
timestamp to the current time.

With the addition of delegated timestamps, the server may receive a
request to update only the atime, which doesn't involve a ctime update.
Trust the ATTR_CTIME flag in the update and only update the ctime when
it's set.

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.
