actimeo=0 is supposed to be a special case that ensures that inode attributes are always refetched from the server instead of trusting the cache. The cifs code however uses time_in_range() to determine whether the attributes have timed out. In the case where cifs_i->time equals jiffies, this leads to the cifs code not refetching the inode attributes when it should. Fix this by explicitly testing for actimeo=0, and handling it as a special case.
