Re: [PATCH RFC] vfs: add a O_NOMTIME flag

Hi!

BTW When you "swap" to a file the mtime doesn't get updated.  No one seems to
complain about that.  I guess it is a rather narrow use-case though.

Actually yes, I'd like to complain.

It was not swap, it was mount -o loop, but I guess that's the same
case. Then rsync refused to work on that file... and being on slow ARM
system it took me a while to figure out WTF is going on.

So yes, we have problems with mtime, and yes, they matter.
