Are you talking about the fc->writeback_cache stuff?  Yeah, that mostly
works out for fuse2fs.  Though I was wondering, when does atime get
updated?  fs/fuse sets S_NOATIME, so I guess it's up to the fuse server
to update it when it wants to, and a later FUSE_GETATTR can pick it up?
If so, how do fuse servers implement lazytime/relatime?
