Hmm... As far as I can see you are still doing an nfs_revalidate_inode()
in the non-forced case. That will cause expired attributes to be
retrieved from the server.

We can get rid of the filemap_write_and_wait() if the caller allows us
to approximate m/ctime values. That would give a major speed-up for most
stat() workloads.
