So, are we ready for Mingming or one of the ext4 developers to propose
a patch for this via xattrs (I can do a similar one for cifs).
Sounds like various have said:

1) xattrs instead of ioctl
2) get of create time allowed by default, but set of create time limited

But for the second part of this - how should we set nanosecond
timestamps for the others (or in Samba's case, rounded to 100
nanoseconds for DCE time) ... a millisecond granularity for utimes is
a very long time these days.

What's wrong with stat(2)? AFAIK, it supports nanoseconds.
