This series aims at deleting timespec64_trunc(). There is a new api: timestamp_truncate() that is the replacement api. The api additionally does a limits check on the filesystem timestamps. The suggestion to open code some of the truncate logic came from Al Viro. And, this does make the code in some filesystems easy to follow. The series also does some update_time() cleanup as suggested by Al Viro.
