[PATCH 01/14] fs: refactor file timestamp update logic

[Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>]

Currently the two high-level APIs use two helper functions to implement
almost all of the logic.  Refactor the two helpers and the common logic
into a new file_update_time_flags routine that gets the iocb flags or
0 in case of file_update_time passed so that the entire logic is
contained in a single function and can be easily understood and modified.
