Subject: [PATCH 2/2 v2] xfs: don't update mtime on COW faults

Precedence: bulk

When running in a dax mode, if the user maps a page with MAP_PRIVATE and
PROT_WRITE, the xfs filesystem would incorrectly update ctime and mtime
when the user hits a COW fault.

This breaks building of the Linux kernel.
How to reproduce:
1. extract the Linux kernel tree on dax-mounted xfs filesystem
2. run make clean
3. run make -j12
4. run make -j12
- at step 4, make would incorrectly rebuild the whole kernel (although it
  was already built in step 3).

The reason for the breakage is that almost all object files depend on
objtool. When we run objtool, it takes COW page fault on its .data
section, and these faults will incorrectly update the timestamp of the
objtool binary. The updated timestamp causes make to rebuild the whole
tree.
