I don't think we need to worry about the ctime of the quota inode as
that inode is internal to the filesystem only.

Thanks Andreas.  I'll plan to drop this patch from the series for now.

Does updating the mtime and atime here serve any purpose, or should
those also be removed? If you plan to keep the a/mtime updates then I'd
still suggest updating the ctime for consistency's sake. It shouldn't
cost anything extra to do so since you're dirtying the inode below
anyway.

Yes, good point actually, we should keep things consistent for simplicity.

Would you add this back in if you do another posting?

Thanks,
Andreas

Thanks!
