This is increasingly ugly.  I wonder if it is justified at all...

I would really rather that the fs got to make this decision.
If it can guarantee that the i_version is monotonic even over a crash
(which is probably can for directory, and might need changes to do for
files) then it sets STATX_ATTR_VERSION_MONOTONIC and nfsd trusts it
completely.
If it cannot, then it doesn't set the flag.
i.e. the S_ISREG() test should be in the filesystem, not in nfsd.

Definitely more to like than to dislike here, so
