Subject: [PATCH 3.16 012/245] ext4: update c/mtime on truncate up

3.16.83-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Eryu Guan <guaneryu@...il.com>

commit 911af577de4e444622d46500c1f9a37ab4335d3a upstream.

Commit 3da40c7b0898 ("ext4: only call ext4_truncate when size <= isize")
introduced a bug that c/mtime is not updated on truncate up.

Fix the issue by setting c/mtime explicitly in the truncate up case.

Note that ftruncate(2) is not affected, so you won't see this bug using
truncate(1) and xfs_io(1).
