Re: [patch] implement smarter atime updates support

O> you might want to add
	/* 
	 * if the inode is dirty already, do the atime update since
	 * we'll be doing the disk IO anyway to clean the inode.
	 */
	if (inode->i_state & I_DIRTY)
		return 1;
This makes the actual result somewhat less predictable. Is that wise ?
Right now its clear what happens based on what user sequence of events
and that this is easily repeatable.
