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 the clamp_t macro is used for clamping here as vfs is not yet using struct timespec64 internally. This is required for compilation purposes. Also note that clamp won't do the right thing for timestamps beyond 2038 on 32-bit machines until the vfs uses timespec64. After the vfs is transitioned to use timespec64 for timestamps, clamp_t() can be replaced by clamp().
