added the relatime_interval sysctl that allows the changing of the 
atime update frequency. (default: 1 day / 86400 seconds)
What if you specify the interval as a per-mount option?  i.e.,

	mount -o relatime=86400 /dev/sda2 /u1

If you had this, I don't think we would need the sysctl tuning 
parameter.
it's much more flexible if there are _more_ options available. People 
can thus make use of the feature earlier, use it even on distros that 
dont support it yet, etc.
