Subject: [PATCH 4.2 084/134] NFSv4: Force a post-op attribute update when holding a delegation

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

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

From: Trond Myklebust <trond.myklebust@...marydata.com>

commit aaae3f00d3f67f681a1f3cb7af999e976e8a24ce upstream.

If the ctime or mtime or change attribute have changed because
of an operation we initiated, we should make sure that we force
an attribute update. However we do not want to mark the page cache
for revalidation.
