Subject: [PATCH 6/8] nfsd: move change attribute generation to filesystem

From: "J. Bruce Fields" <[email protected]>

After this, only filesystems lacking change attribute support will leave
the fetch_iversion export op NULL.

This seems cleaner to me, and will allow some minor optimizations in the
nfsd code.

It seems a little weird to call a static inline here. I imagine that
means the compiler has to add a duplicate inline in every .o file that
does this? It may be cleaner to move generic_fetch_iversion into
fs/libfs.c so we only have one copy of it.

OK.

(To be honest, I was a little suprised this worked.)

One more nit:

We probably don't want anyone using this on filesystems that don't set

WARN_ON_ONCE(!IS_I_VERSION(inode));

To this function, to catch anyone trying to do it.
