When writeback cache is enabled, the inode information in cached is
considered new by default, and the inode information of lowerfs is
stale.
When a lower fs is mount in a different directory through different
connection, for example PATHA and PATHB, since writeback cache is
enabled by default, when the file is modified through PATHA, viewing the
same file from the PATHB, PATHB will think that cached inode is newer
than lowerfs, resulting in file size and time from under PATHA and PATHB
is inconsistent.
Add a judgment condition to check whether to use the info in the cache
according to mtime.
