[RFC 6/6] utimes: Clamp the timestamps before update

[Deepa Dinamani <deepa.kernel@gmail.com>]

POSIX.1 section for futimens, utimensat and utimes says:
The file's relevant timestamp shall be set to the
greatest value supported by the file system that is
not greater than the specified time.

Clamp the timestamps accordingly before assignment.

Note that clamp_t macro is used for clamping here as vfs
is not yet using struct timespec64 internally. This is
for compilation purposes only.
The actual patch can only be merged only after vfs is
transitioned to use timespec64 for correct operation of
clamp macro. At which point, clamp_t() will be replaced
by clamp().
