While these aren't generally visible from userland, it's best to be consistent with timestamp handling. When adjusting the quota, update the mtime and ctime like we would with a write operation on any other inode, and avoid updating the atime which should only be done for reads.

Andreas and I had discussed this privately, and I think it makes sense as part of that series.
