Subject: [PATCH 3.11 004/128] btrfs: Add ctime/mtime update for btrfs device add/remove.

3.11.10.14 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Qu Wenruo <quwenruo@...fujitsu.com>

commit 5a1972bd9fd4b2fb1bac8b7a0b636d633d8717e3 upstream.

Btrfs will send uevent to udev inform the device change,
but ctime/mtime for the block device inode is not udpated, which cause
libblkid used by btrfs-progs unable to detect device change and use old
cache, causing 'btrfs dev scan; btrfs dev rmove; btrfs dev scan' give an
error message.
